Answer:

47,885 bonds

Explanation:

In determining the number of bonds that must be sold to raise $87.9 million to fund the project , the current price per bond can computed which can thereafter be used to divide the expected proceeds from the issue in order to determine the number of bonds to be issued.

The current price of the bond can be calculated using the pv formula in excel which is given as:

=pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

rate is the yield to maturity divided by 2 since interest is paid twice a year

that is 6.67%/2

nper is the time to maturity of the bond multiplied by 2;20*2

pmt is the six month interest  receivable by investors 5.92%/2*$2000=$59.2

fv is the face value at $2000

=pv(6.67%/2,40,59.2,2000)

pv=$1835.66

The number of bonds=$87,900,000/$1835.66

                                     =47885 bonds

Answer:

47,884.79  units of bonds

Explanation:

The units to be sold to arise $87.9 million  will be equal to the

$87.9 million / divided by the bond price

The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows expected from the bond discounted using the yield to maturity. These cash flows include interest payment and redemption value

The price of the bond can be calculated as follows:

Step 1

PV of interest payment

Semi-annual coupon rate = 5.92/2 =  2.96%

Interest payment =2.96%× 2,000= 59.2

Semi annual yield = 6.67%/2  = 3.335

PV of interest payment

= A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

=  59.2× (1-(1.03335)^(-2×20))/0.03335)

= 1,297.22

Step 2

PV of redemption value

PV = FV× (1+r)^(-n)

= 2,000 × (1+0.03335)^(-2× 20)

= 538.43

Step 3

Price of bond =

= 1297.22 + 538.43

= $1835.65

Step 4

Units to be used

= $87.9 million/ $1,835.65

=  47,884.79  units

Doss [256]

Answer:

Answer explained below

Explanation:

decrease in consumer surplus = 0.5(initial number of bottles - final number)*(final price-initial price) + (final price-initial price)*(final number)

where initial number of bottles = 25

final number of bottles = 15

initial price = $390

final price = $390

substituting these values, we have

- decrease in consumer surplus = 0.5(25-15)(450-390) + (450-390)15 = 1200

Consumer surplus decreases by 1200

- Consumers will buy the good as long as marginal benefit is greater than or equal price.

Thus quantity demanded will be 2 from the table

Consumer surplus = 240- market price = 240 -220= 20

Consumers total benefit = 220*quantity demanded = 220*2= 440

diamong [38]

Answer:

Check the explanation as follows.

Explanation:

a) If it is invested in US

Current= $40 million

Interest rate= 0.28% p.m

Interest for 1 month= $40 million*0.28%= $0.112 million

Interest for 3 months= $0.112*3= $0.336 million

Total value after 3 months= $40 million+$0.336 million = $40336000.

b) If it is invested in Great Britain.

Convert $40 million into Pounds= $40 million*0.639 = Pound 25.56 million

Ivest in Great Britain for 3 months @ 0.32%

Interest per month= 25.56 million*0.32% *3 = 0.245376

Total Pounds after 3 months= Pound 25.805376

Convert into $= 25.805376/0.642 = $40195289.7156

Value if invested in great britain= $40195289.7156
