frutty [35]

Answer:

Current yield is 6.17%

<em>YTD is 5.43%</em>

<em>YTC is 4.26%</em>

Explanation:

Tenor: 15 years

-> number of payment (NPer) is 30 (= 15 years * 2 for semiannual)

Coupon rate: 7.4%

- > semiannual payments (PMT): $37 = ($1000*7.4%/2)

Future value (FV): $1000

Present value (PV): $1200

Current yield = annual coupon/ current price = $37*2/$1200 = 6.17%

<u>Extra: </u>

We use excel to calculate  yield to date (YTD) or nominal yield:

= Rate(Nper, PMT, - PV,FV) = Rate(30,37,-1200,1000) = 2.717% semiannual

-> annual rate is 5.43%

The bond issue is callable in 5 years at a call price of $1,074, then FV is $1074

Yield to call = rate(10,37,-1200,1074) = 2.13% semiannual

-> annual rate is 4.26%

A July sales forecast projects that 5,000 units are going to be sold at a price of $12.50 per unit. The management forecasts 2%
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

P_i = 5000 units *12.5\frac{dollars}{unit} = 62500 dollars

And for the new case we know that the sales increase by a factor of 2%, so then we can find the new number of sales like this:

1.02*5000 units= 5100 units

And the Total August sales would be given by:

P_f = 5100 units *12.5 \frac{dollars}{unit}= 63750 dollars

And the correct answer for this case would be:

$63,750

Explanation:

For this case the original number of sales for this case is 5000 units and the unitary price is given by 12.5 \frac{dollars}{unit}

And the total sales for the original case would be given by:

P_i = 5000 units *12.5\frac{dollars}{unit} = 62500 dollars

And for the new case we know that the sales increase by a factor of 2%, so then we can find the new number of sales like this:

1.02*5000 units= 5100 units

And the Total August sales would be given by:

P_f = 5100 units *12.5 \frac{dollars}{unit}= 63750 dollars

And the correct answer for this case would be:

$63,750
