The answer is d: to protect against high prices
Answer: 1. $218750 ; 2. $231, 250 ; 3. $11562.50
Explanation:
1. The bonds with a par value of $250,000 and implied selling price of 87 ½.
Cash proceed = 250,000 × 87.5%
= $218,750
2. Since it's semiannual interest payments, the total amount of bond interest expense that will be recognized over the life of these bonds will be:
[20 × (250,000 × 8% × 6/12)]+ $250,000 - $218,750
= $200,000 + $250,000 - $218,750
= $231, 250
3. The amount of bond interest expense recorded on the first interest payment date will be:
= Total bond interest expense/number of payments
= $231,250/20
= $11562.50
Answer: BP = BD(WD) + BE(WE)
1 = 0.86(1-WE) + 1.39WE
1 = 0.86-0.86WE + 1.39WE
1 = 0.86 + 0.53WE
-0.53WE = -0.14
0.53WE = 0.14
WE = 0.14/0.53
WE = 0.2641509434
WD = 1 - WE
WD = 1 - 0.2641509434
WD = 0.7358490566
The dollar amount of investment in stock D = 0.7358490566 x $215,000
= $158,207.54
Explanation: The beta of the portfolio is 1, which corresponds to the beta of the market. The beta of the portfolio equals beta of each stock multiplied by the percentage of fund invested in each stock(weight). The weight of stock D is equal to 1 - weight of stock E. Therefore, we need to make weight of stock E the subject of the formula by solving the problem mathematically and collecting the like terms. The weight of stock E is 0.2641509434. The weight of stock E will be subtracted from 1 so as to obtain the weight of stock D, which is 0.7358490566. The dollar amount of stock D equal to $215,000 multiplied by 0.7358490566, which is $158,207.54.
Answer:
(a) If the Bills want to sell tickets to all 8 games by selling eight individual tickets, they have to set the price P = 120 − 10(8) = 120 − 80 = $40. This yields revenue of $40(8) = $320 from each fan.
(b) If the Bills practice second degree price discrimination, they can effectively charge
P = 120 − 10(1) = 120 − 10 = $110 for single games,
P = 110 + 100 + 90 + 80 = $380 = $95/ticket for a 4-game package, and
P = 110 + 100 + 90 + 80 + 70 + 60 + 50 +40 = $600 = $75/ticket for an 8-game package.
Answer:
Change in M1 $400
Changd in M2 $0
Explanation:
The money which is been held by individuals in savings accounts is part of the M2 money supply, but its not part ofthe M1 money supply.
Hence when Jane withdraws $400 cash from her savings account,the M1 money supply will increases by $400. However, the M2 money supply does not tend to change reason been that the M1 money supply is included as part of the M2 money
Change in M1 $400
Changd in M2 $0
