A 5-year bond with a 10% coupon rate was purchased at $980 at issue and sold at $1020 by end of year 4. What is the investor's y
Dimas [21]

The yearly return of the investor is given to be 11.069%

<h3>How to find the YTM</h3>

In order to do this we have to make use of the Rate function in excel

This would be given as

=RATE(nper, PMT, PV, FV)

where Nper is 5 years

PMT is = $1,000*10% = $100

PV = $980

The future value Fv is given as $1,000

Hnece we would have to type in excel

RATE(5,100,-980,1000)

This would give us the value of the YTM as 10.5348%

Next would be to find the rate of return of this investor. This would be the rate that he actually earned.

We would also use the rate function

=RATE(nper, PMT, PV, FV

Npe = 4 years

PMT = $1,000*10% = $100

PV = $980

FV = $1,020 that is the amount for which the bond was sold

=RATE(4,100,-980,1020)

The solution would be = 11.0698%

Thus we can say that the return earned on investment is 11.0698%

Shaw Industries, a giant carpet manufacturer, increases its control over raw materials by producing much of its own polypropylen
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

<u>Using related diversification to achieve value by integrating vertically in order to acquire market power.</u>

Explanation:

First, let's understand what are the stages of a supply chain, they are:

  1. commodities
  2. manufacturing
  3. distribution
  4. retail

In this regard, we can see that Shaw Industries controls more than one stage of its supply, commodities and manufacturing chain, which characterizes vertical integration.

Therefore, the most appropriate alternative to the question is that the company gains a greater market gain with this strategy because it increases the management and quality control, by ensuring that the inputs and processes are in accordance with its standards, which guarantees a product of higher quality and consequently better positioned on the market.

A store manager must decide how many rug cleaners to rent to customers. The manager estimates that the first would yield $200 a
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The store manager must decide to buy 3

Explanation:

Given that:

  • The first:  $200 a year
  • The second $150
  • The third $75,
  • The fourth $50
  • Interest rate is 12 percent
  • Investment: $500

As we know that the rate of return will be: Income / Investment

So the rate of return of:

  • The first:  $200 / $500 = 0.4 = 40%
  • The second $150 / $500 = 0,3 = 30%
  • The third $75 / $500 = 0.15 = 15%
  • The fourth $50 / $500 = 0.1 = 10%

Only three rug cleaners have the rate of return greater than the interest rate so the store manager must decide to buy 3
