Answer:

The yield to maturity is 7.5%

The price of the bond at 9% yield to maturity is $934.96  

Explanation:

In calculating the yield I used the rate formula in Excel, rate formula is given as:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is period to maturity of 10 years multiplied by 2(semi-annual compounding)

pmt is the coupon interest payable semi-annually which  8%*$1000/2=$40

pv is the current price of $1034.74

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(20,40,-1034.74,1000)

=3.75%

APR=3.5%*2=7.5%

Bond price is the present value of the bond at yield of 9% with semi-annual yield of 4.5%

=pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

=pv(4.5%,20,40,1000)

pv=$934.96

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Incremental income as scrap=$66,500

Incremental income when re-worked= $81,700

Explanation:

Unit contribution from selling as scrap is the equal to the scrap value = 3.50

Unit contribution when reworked and sold as scrap =Selling price - cost of re-work= $8.90-4.60= $4.3

Incremental income as scrap = $3.50×19,000= $66,500

Incremental income when re-worked= $4.3 × 19,000 = $81,700

Incremental income as scrap=$66,500

Incremental income when re-worked= $81,700

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

$1,524 underapplied

Explanation:

Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated Manufacturing Overhead ÷ Estimated Activity.

                                                  = $560,324 ÷ 22,060

                                                  = $25.40

Applied Overheads = Predetermined overhead rate × Actual Activity

                                 = $25.40 × 22,000

                                = $558,800

<em>Where,</em>

Actual Overheads are  $560,324 (given)

<em>Conditions :</em>

If Actual Overheads > Applied Overheads, we say overheads are under-applied and if Actual Overheads < Applied Overheads, we say that overheads are over-applied.

<em>Therefore ,</em>

In our case, Actual Overheads : $560,324 > Applied Overheads : $558,800. Overheads have been under-applied by $1,524 ($560,324 - $558,800).
