Answer:

$44,651.06

Explanation:

We use the Present value function for this question. The calculation is shown in the attached spreadsheet

Data are given in the question

Future value = $0

Rate of interest = 6%

NPER = 5 years

PMT = $25,000

The formula is shown below:

= PV(Rate;NPER;-PMT;FV;type)

After solving this, the present value is $44,651.06

Madison Company issued an interest-bearing note payable with a face amount of $10,800 and a stated interest rate of 8% to the Me
Aleks [24]

Answer:

$360

Explanation:

Interest Expense associated with the loan is the only operating cash flow. We need to calculate the interest expense first

As the note is issued on August 1, year 1, only  5 months has been passed on December 31, year 1, So we calculate the interest expense for only 5 months.

Interest Expense = Value of Note x Stated Interest rate x 5/12 = $10,800 x 8% x 5/12 = $360

It is assumed that the interest is paid on December 31, year 1.

Jim Busby calls his broker to inquire about purchasing a bond of Disk Storage Systems. The broker quotes a price of $1,180. Jim
Dimas [21]

Answer:

Jim Busby and Bonds of Disk Storage Systems

The new price of the bond is:

= $21,059

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Quoted price of bond = $1,180

Face value of bond = $1,000

Coupon interest rate = 14%

Bond's maturity period = 25 years

Current yield to maturity = 12%

Therefore, new price of the bond is computed as follows:

Bond Price = C* (1-(1+r)-n/r ) + F/(1+r)n

where C = Periodic coupon payment = $140 ($1,000 * 14%)

• F = Face / Par value of bond = $1,000

• r = Yield to maturity (YTM) = 12% and

• n = No. of periods till maturity = 25 years

= $140 * (1 – (1+0.12)^-25)/0.12 +$1000/(1+0.12)^25

= $140 * (1 - -17.00)/0.12 + $1,000/17.00

= $140 * (18.00)/0.12 + $1,000/17.00

= $140 * 150 + $59

= $21,000 + $59

= $21,059

Ric wants to invest in government securities that promise to pay $1,000 at maturity. The opportunity cost (interest rate) of hol
lutik1710 [3]

Answer: An investment that matures in five years

Explanation:

Both investments may be of equal risks, but by virtue of having different maturity dates, they will not be priced the same.

This is because the discount rate (opportunity cost) will discount the maturity value more the longer the investment is such that the present value is lower.

4 year investment

= 1,000 / (1.068)^4

= $768.63

5 year investment

= 1,000 / (1.068)^5

= $719.69

The 5 year investment will have a lower present value and will be charged lower.
