Answer:

YTM = 6.42%

Explanation:

current market value = $1,000 x 98% = $980

n = (15 - 2) x 2 = 26

coupon = $1,000 x 6.2% x 1/2 = $31

face value = $1,000

YTM = [coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2]

YTM = [31 + [(1,000 - 980)/26]} / [(1,000 + 980)/2]

YTM = (31 + 0.77) / 990 = 31.77 / 990 = 0.03209 x 2 (annual yield) = 0.641818 = 6.42%

Garth Corporation sells a single product. If the selling price per unit and the variable expense per unit both increase by 10% a
Sonja [21]

Answer:

D) CM per unit: Increases

CM ratio: No change

BE in units: Decreases

Explanation:

Let us suppose that

In the first case

The selling price per unit is $100

And, the variable cost per unit is $50

The fixed expense is $100,000

So, the contribution margin per unit

= $100 - $50

= $50

The CM ratio is

= $50 ÷ $100

= 50%

And, the break even point in units is

= $100,000 ÷ $50

= 2,000 units

Now if the selling price per unit and the variable expense per unit both increase by 10%

So,

The selling price per unit is $100 × 1.10 = $110

And, the variable cost per unit is $50 × 1.10 = $55

The fixed expense is $100,000

So, the contribution margin per unit

= $110 - $55

= $55

The CM ratio is

= $55 ÷ $110

= 50%

And, the break even point in units is

= $100,000 ÷ $55

= 1,818 units

Hence, the last option is correct

You are planning to buy 2019 MINI Cooper on a loan. Price of the car is $26,000. You are planning to make monthly payments for t
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

$1,223.91

Explanation:

As per the concept of time value of money, the value of money today is more than the value of money tomorrow.

Given:

Price of car = $26,000

Interest rate 12%, compounded monthly

Tenure = 2 years

Now, Price of the car is the value of money today to purchase the car. So, while computing the monthly payment for car $26,000 will be considered as present value.

Monthly payment for car can be computed easily using Microsoft excel.

Use the following mentioned formula to calculate the monthly payment.

"=PMT(rate,nper,pv,[fv])"

wherein,

Rate = 12%/2 (because it has been compounded monthly)

nper = 2*12 (because 2 years are to be compounded monthly.)

Pv = $26,000 (as mentioned earlier)

Since, there is no Fv so it blank.

Sweet Sue Foods has bonds outstanding with a coupon rate of 5.44 percent paid semiannually and sell for $1,930.36. The bonds hav
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Current yield=5.6%

Explanation:

<em>The current yield is the proportion of the current price of a bond earned as annual  interest payment.</em>

<em>Current yield = annual interest payment/bond price</em>

<em>Annual interest payment = coupon rate × face value</em>

                                          = 5.44% × $2000

                                          = $108.8

Current yield

= annual interest payment/price

= $(108.8/1,930.36) × 100

= 5.6%

Note we used the annual interest payment nothwithstanding that interests are paid semi-annually

We know that the longer a person saves, the more time their savings have to compound and grow. Given that fact, why do you think
vivado [14]

Answer:

The illusion of time

Explanation:

This is because younger people think that they have time to save up later; that if they spend now, they can always make up for it later. On the other hand, older people know that they don't have much time (comparatively) to save money as they did before, so saving money becomes a bigger deal for them.
