Answer:
= $877.32
Explanation:
<em>The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).</em>
<em>Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV</em>
The value of bond for Jasper Inc can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
<em>PV of interest payments</em>
<em>Semi annul interest paymen</em>t 
= 4.5% × 1000 × 1/2
= 22.5
<em>Semi-annual yield</em> = 5.6/2 = 2.8% per six months
<em>Total period to maturity (in months)</em>
 = (2 × 19) = 38 periods  <em> (Note it was sold a year ago)</em>
<em>PV of interest = </em>
<em> </em>22.5 × (1- (1+0.028)^(-38)/0.028)
= 22.5 ×23.20871226
= 522.196
Step 2 
<em>PV of Redemption Value</em>
= 1,000 × (1.056)^(-19)
= 355.128
<em>Price of bond</em>
 =  522.19 + 355.12
= $877.32

Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the total market value of all the final goods and services produced within a sovereign nation(country) during a given period of time usually a year.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) can be calculated using expenditure method or income method or value-added method.
To analyze this question, expenditure method will be used. The formula is C + I + G + (X-M)
where C is the consumer spending
I is the business investments
G is the government spending
X is the exports
M is the imports.
Government has injected $200 billion into the economy through its spending.
This $200 billion is gotten from an increase in taxes, meaning consumers' disposable income has reduced by this amount.
Therefore, $200 billion will still be the incremental amount to the GDP

Answer:
The correct answer is option (b) $5400
Explanation:
Solution
Calculation of the cost of direct material on May 1
Now,
The starting work In process inventory = Direct materials Cost  + Direct labor  Cost + Manufacturing overhead applied on W.I.P
13,500 = Direct materials cost  + 4500 + 3600 
Thus,
Direct material cost = 13500 - 4500-3600 = $5400
Note:  Direct labor cost = 300 * 15 = $ 4500
The manufacturing overhead = 300 hour *  $12 = $ 3600
So, only expenses associated to work in process will be considered, hence only direct labor and manufacturing overhead are used to work in process are considered.
