Answer:

The total dollar return on this investment is $1765

Explanation:

The total dollar return on the investment by Sue is a sum of the interest earned by Sue during this period and the profit due to the increase in bid/ask price of the bond.

Interest earned = [(0.035/2) x $100,000] = $1750;  

The selling price by Sue today will be the bid quote today and for the purchase price on which Sue bought the bond we will take the asked quote on purchase.

bid quote today = 124.2175

asked quote on purchase = 124.2025

Profit earned on selling = (Bid quote today - Asked quote on purchase) * $100,000

= [(124.2175 - 124.2025) x $100,000] = $15

Total return = $1750 + $15 = $1765

Answer:

total return 1,765

Explanation:

the bonds will be purcahse at ask quote (dealer is willing to sale at 124.2025

and sale at bid price (dealer purchase at 124.2175)

we also have  gain the interest for the period:

principal x rate x time = interest

as the rate is annual then, time is express as the portion of a year

100,000 x 0.035 x 6/12 months = 1,750

100,000 x 124.2025 = 124,202.5 purchase price

100,000 x 124.2175 = 124,217.5 sale price

capital gain: (diffeence between sale and purchase: 15

total return 1,765

Andrews [41]

Answer: SEE EXPLANATION

Explanation:

Given the following ;

Values depending on Success

$150M, $135M, $95M, $80M

Risk free rate = 5% = 0.05

Pervebtage to be lost in case of bankruptcy = 25% = 0.25

A.) 0.25 × [( 150 + 135 + 95 + 80) ÷ 1.05] = $109.52 million

Assume a zero-coupon debt with a $100million face value

B.) 0.25 × [( 100 + 100 + (95×0.75) + (80×0.75)) ÷ 1.05] = $78.87 million

C.) Yield to maturity (YTM)

(100M÷78.87M) - 1

1.2679 - 1 = 0.2679 = 26.79%

Expected return = 5%

D.) Equity value

0.25 × [( 150 + 135 + (95×0.75) + (80×0.75)) ÷ 1.05] = $99.11 million

E.) share if no debt is issued

109.52 ÷ 10 = 10.95 per share

F.) Share price if debt of $100M is issued

99.11 ÷ 10 = 9.91 per share

The price differs because bankruptcy cost will Lower the share price.

Ainat [17]

Answer:

Jason's accountant should consider a single plantwide rate to correct the problem.

Explanation:

If a company manufactures products that consume factory overhead costs in different ways, a single plantwide rate may not accurately allocate factory overhead costs to the products and cause cost distortions. Cost distortions can cause companies to lose sales and make incorrect decisions on expanding production.

The firm negotiates a new agreement with its workers for lower wages. The ATC curve should be __________ and the AFC curve shoul
WINSTONCH [101]

Lower; unchanged

  • Average total cost (ATC) in economics is calculated as total fixed and variable costs divided by the number of units produced. The normal shape of the average total cost curve is a U, meaning it drops, bottoms out, and then rises. The total cost of an organization is the sum of its fixed and variable costs.
  • The vertical summation of AFC and AVC must be obtained in order to graph average total costs (ATC). Plot the points as shown on the left after adding the two at each output level. Because it is the result of adding the AFC and AVC curves, the ATC curve is higher than the other two. You can see that it is U-shaped, just like the AVC curve, on the left.

Thus this is the answer.
