Answer:

$441,495

Explanation:

Since the information is incomplete, I looked for the missing part and found the attached information.

the current yield of a 1.5 years zero coupon bond = (100 / 89.9)¹/¹°⁵ - 1 = 0.0736 = 7.36%

the current yield of a 6 months zero coupon bond = (100 / 97.087)¹/⁰°⁵ - 1 = 0.0609 = 6.09%

now to calculate the future interest rate:

(1.0736²/1.0609) - 1 = 0.0865 = 8.65%

since we are told to determine the price of the bond:

(100/P)¹/¹°⁵ - 1 = 0.0865

(100/P)¹/¹°⁵ = 1.0865

100/P = 1.0865¹°⁵

100/P = 1.1325

100/1.1325 = P

P = 88.299

the expected price of the bond = 88.299% x $500,000 = $441,495

Answer:

                                         Unit cost

                                                $

Variable costing                    18

Absorption costing               26.5

Explanation:

<em>Variable costing values every unit produced at the marginal cost</em>. Marginal cost is the sum of direct material, direct labor and variable overhead.

Marginal cost = 7.50 + 10.50 =$18

<em>Absorption costing values every unit at full cost</em>. Full cost is the sum of marginal and fixed overhead cost per unit,

Fixed overhead cost per unit =  $297,500/35,000=8.5

Full cost = 7.50 + 10.50 + 8.50= $26.5

                                     Unit cost

Jackson Tires reported net sales of $80 million and total operating costs (including depreciation) of $52 million. Jackson Tires
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

d. 8.18 million

MVA is $380 million

Explanation:

Net residual Income is the value of the firm. All the preferred and required / agreed return on any the funding availed is deducted from the net earning after profit to make the value for the firm. The income purely associated to the firm is considered as the value of the firm.

Earning Before Interest and tax = Net Sales - Operating costs = $80 million - $52 million = $28 million

Net Operating profit after tax = $28 x ( 1 - 40% ) = $16.8 million

Return on investor-supplied capital = $115 million x 7.5% = $8.625 million

Value created for the firm = Net operating profit after tax - Return on investor-supplied capital = $16.8 - $8.625 = $8.175 million = $8.18 million

MVA is the net of market capitalization and stockholders equity of the firm. It is the difference of market value and book value of equity of a firm.

MVA = ( Outstanding shares x Market value of shares ) - Book value od the equity = ( 20 million shares x $25 per share ) - $120 million = $500 million - $120 million = $380 million

Which option identifies the concept represented in the following scenario?
MArishka [77]

Answer:

dumping

Explanation:

Dumping in international trade refers to exporting goods to another country at a lower price than in the domestic market. A company or country involved in dumping may sell goods in a foreign country below the production cost. The objective is to gain market penetration and acquire a sizable market share in the targeted country.

Dumping enables customers in the importing country to buy goods at a lower price. However, it may kill local industries leading to the closure of businesses and layoffs.
