Answer:

a) $1,153.72

b) $93.72

c) $424

Explanation:

Given:

Original bond was issued at 12%

YTM = 10%

Years left, N = 15 years.

a) The current price of bond:

Using Excel function, we have:

=PV(10%/2,2*15,-12%*1000/2,-1000)

= $1153.72

The current price of bond is $1,153.72

b) Dollar profit based on bond's current price will be calculated as:

Bond's current price - purchase price

= $1,153.72 - $1,060

= $93.72

Dollar profit = $93.72

c) The purchase price of $1,060 Ms. Bright paid in cash will be:

$1,060 * 40%

= $424

Answer:

A.) $1,152.12

B.) $92.12

C.) $424.00

Explanation:

Given

period (t) = 15 years

Coupon rate = 12%

Rate (r) = 10%

Par value = $1000

Purchase price = $1060

A.) Current price of bond :

Price = Coupon payment × [(1 - (1 + r)^-t) /r] + [par value / (1+r)^t]

Coupon payment = 12% × 1000 = $120

Plugging our values

Price = 120 × [(1-(1+0.1)^-15)/0.1] + [1000/1.1^15]

Price = $1,152.12

B.) Dollar profit on bond

Dollar profit = Current price - Purchase price

Dollar profit = $1,152.12 - $1060 = $92.12

C.)Amount paid in cash

40% of purchase amount was paid in cash

0.4 × 1060 = $424.00

Using both the supply and demand for bonds and liquidity preference framework, show how interest rate are affected when the risk
nignag [31]

Answer:

Yes, the results are the same in both frameworks. Please see below for explanation.

Explanation:

With regards to the bond supply and demand framework, people will look to buy more bonds since they are more wealthy now. Hence, the supply of bonds will increase. The supply curve and the demand curve will both move to the right, with the former shifting more than the latter. The equilibrium interest rate will increase.

With regards to the liquidity preference framework, once the economy experiences a positive shift, there will also be an increase in the demand for money. People will make an increased number of transactions as well and hence, the demand curve will move towards the right. The equilibrium interest rate will rise too.

Check the ONE factor that is NOT used to determine the best channel to send a message. *
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Concern of your audiences response.

Explanation:

Communication can be defined as a process which typically involves the transfer of information from one person (sender) to another (recipient), through the use of semiotics, symbols and signs that are mutually understood by both parties.

The Sender Message Channel Receiver (SMCR) model of communication was developed and created by David Berlo in 1960. SCMR was developed from the Shannon-Weaver model of communication of 1949.

The SCMR model of communication comprises of four (4) main components and these are;

1. Sender (S) : this is typically the source of information (message) or the originator of a message that is being sent to a receiver. Thus, they are simply the producer of a message.

2. Channel (C) : this is the medium used by the sender for the dissemination or transmission of the message to the recipient. For example, telephone, television, radio, newspapers, billboards etc.

3. Message (M) : this is the information or data that is being sent to a recipient by a sender. It could be in the form of a video, audio, text message etc.

4. Receiver (R) : this is typically the destination of information (message) or the recipient of a message that is being sent from a sender. Thus, the receiver is any individual who is able to read, hear or see and process the message being sent or communicated in the communication process.

The factors used to determine the best channel to send a message includes the following;

I. The importance of a message

II. The amount and speed of feedback from the receiver (recipient).

III. The need for a permanent record of the message.

IV. Cost of the channel.

V. The degree of formality desired by the sender of the message.

VI. Confidentiality and sensitivity of the message being sent.

VII. The preference and level of technical expertise of the receiver (recipient).
