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

siniylev [52]

Answer: <em>Option (D) is correct.</em>

From the given options, the following is least feasible to be taken in consideration as a substantive practice relating to payroll: <em>Test whether employee time reports are approved by supervisors.</em>

<em>Payroll commonly is a term that is referred to as the cumulative sum of money that an organization pays to an individual. It can also be stated as  organization's records of individual's salaries, bonuses, and taxes. </em>

<em>Therefore it'll be futile to take in consideration "whether employee time reports are approved by supervisors", as a substantive procedure relating to payroll.</em>

Explanation:

Years                                                  0            1             2           3            4  

Cash flow                                     -15000  -58000   45000  45000   45000

Successful chance result (62%)  -9300   -35960    27900   27900   27900  

Considered cash flow                 -15000  -35960    27900  27900    27900

Discount factor (14%)                        1         0.877      0.769    0.675     0.592  

Present value                         -15000  (31,543.86)  21,468.14  18,831.71 16,519.04

Net present value = -$15000 - $31,543.86 + 21,468.14  + 18,831.71 + 16,519.04

Net present value = $10,275.03

The bowed-outward shape of the production possibilities frontier can be explained by the fact that.
Aloiza [94]

The bowed-outward shape of the production possibility frontier illustrates that the <u>opportunity cost</u> of one good in terms of the other depends on how much of each good the economy is producing.

<h3>What is Production Possibility Frontier?</h3>

The production possibility frontier (PPF) is a curve in economics that depicts the maximum amounts that two goods can create if they both rely on the same limited resource for production.

From the attached picture below, Let's assume that:

  • The vertical product is: wine
  • The horizontal product is: cotton

The bowed-outward shape of the production possibility frontier illustrates that the <u>opportunity cost</u> of one good in terms of the other depends on how much of each good the economy is producing.

A state government reported a $9,000 increase in net position in the motor pool internal service fund, a $12,000 increase in net
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: $12,000

Explanation:

Only the $12,000 will be reported in Statement of Activities ( the financial statement used to report revenues and expenses for governmental and business-type activities) as a change in net position for business-type activities.

Why?

The Water Entreprise Fund is the only listed fund type listed that would fall under BUSINESS TYPE because it is an ENTREPRISE Fund. The Motor Pool Internal Service falls under GOVERNMENT ACTIVITIES and the Pension Find is only displayed in the Fund Financial Statements.

Because the Water Entreprise Fund is the only fund here concerned with BUSINESS TYPE activities, it's rise by $12,000 is what will be reported as the Net Change.
