For a certain firm, the 100th unit of output that the firm produces has a marginal revenue of $11 and a marginal cost of $10. A)
jeyben [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d.

Explanation:

The 100th unit of output that the firm produces has a marginal revenue of $11 and a marginal cost of $10.  

The profit to a firm is maximized when the marginal revenue earned and marginal cost incurred are equal.  

When the firm is producing the 100th unit of output the marginal revenue is $1 higher than the marginal cost. This implies that the production of the 100th unit increases the firm's profit by $1.

Last year Carson Industries issued a 10-year, 12% semiannual coupon bond at its par value of $1,000. Currently, the bond can be
Nataly [62]

Answer:

YTM = 8.93%

YTC = 8.47%

Explanation:

P = \frac{C}{2} \times\frac{1-(1+YTC/2)^{-2t} }{YTC/2} + \frac{CP}{(1+YTC/2)^{2t}}

The first part is the present value of the coupon payment until the bond is called.

The second is the present value of the called amount

P = market price value = 1,200

C = annual coupon payment = 1,000 x 12% 120

C/2 = 60

CP = called value = 1,060

t = time = 6 years

P = 60 \times\frac{1-(1+YTC/2)^{-2\times 6} }{YTC/2} + \frac{1,060}{(1+YTC/2)^{2\times 6}}

Using Financial calculator we get the YTC

8.467835879%

P = 60 \times\frac{1-(1+YTM/2)^{-2\times 10} }{YTM/2} + \frac{1,000}{(1+YTM/2)^{2\times 10}}

The first part is the present value of the coupon payment until manurity

The second is the present value of the redeem value at maturity

P = market price value = 1,200

C = coupon payment = 1,000 x 12%/2 = 60

C/2 = 60

F = face value = 1,060

t = time = 10 years

Using Financial calculator we get the YTM

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Yanta Co. has a higher exposure to exchange rate risk than Diz Co.

The reason is that Yanta Co. does not have net inflows of euros.  Instead, its euro transactions yield net outflows.

It will always be in need of euros to settle its foreign debts or obligations, unlike Diz Co. with foreign assets.

Explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Diz Co. has net cash inflows of euros and net cash inflows of swiss francs

Yanta Co. has net cash outflows of euros and net cash inflows of swiss francs

b) Exposure to exchange rate risk or currency risk is the financial risk arising from fluctuations in the value of the US dollars against the Euro or Swiss Francs in which Diz Co. has some foreign assets while Yanta Co. has foreign obligations.
