Today, G&W called the bonds. The bonds originally were sold at their face value of $1,000. Compute the realized rate of return for investors who purchased the bonds when they were issued and who surrender them today in exchange for the call price.

Answer:

14.82%

Explanation:

initial investment = $1,000

annual coupon = $140 (7 coupons received)

selling price = $1,090

the easiest way to determine the realized rate of return is to use a financial calculator or excel spreadsheet, and calculate the IRR: 14.82%

the cash flows are:

  • -1000
  • 140
  • 140
  • 140
  • 140
  • 140
  • 140
  • 1230

At an inflation rate of 7 percent, the purchasing power of $3 would be cut in half in 10.25 years. how long to the nearest year
lyudmila [28]
The applicable formula is;
A = P(1-r)^n

Where;
A = Final purchasing power
P = Current purchasing power
r = inflation
n = Number of years when P changes to A

Confirming the first claim:
A = 1/2P (to be confirmed)
P = $3
r = 7% = 0.07
n = 10.25 years

Using the formula;
A = 3(1-0.07)^10.25 = 3(0.475) ≈ 3(0.5) = $1.5
And therefore, A = 1/2P after 10.25 years.

Now, give;
P = $9
A = 1/4P = $9/4 = $2.25
r = 6.5% = 0.065
n = ? (nearest year).

Substituting;
2.25 = 9(1-0.065)^n
2.25/9 = (1-0.065)^n
0.25 = (1-0.065)^n
ln (0.25)= n ln(1-0.065)
-1.3863 = -0.0672n
n = (-1.3863)/(-0.0672) = 20.63 years

To nearest year;
n = 21 years

Therefore, it would take approximately 21 years fro purchasing power to reduce by 4. That is, from $9 to $2.25.

Steadigen Company sells two generators long dash Model A and Model Blong dashfor $ 432 per unit and $ 410 per unit, respectively
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Contribution margin per unit = Sales -  variable cost

Contribution margin per unit (Model A) = $432 - $404

Contribution margin per unit (Model A) = $28 per unit

Contribution margin per unit (Model B) = $410 - $304

Contribution margin per unit (Model B) = $106 per unit

False, Contribution margin per unit (Model B) is higher so,  motivated to push sales of Model A will be false.

Break-even in units = Fixed cost / Contribution margin per unit

Break-even in units (Model A) =  Fixed cost / $28

Break-even in units (Model B) =  Fixed cost / $106

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

$25,400

Explanation:

Equity which represents the amount owed to the owners of the business includes retained earnings (which is the accumulation of the net income/loss over the years less dividends paid) and common shares.

The movement in the retained earnings balance may be expressed as

Opening balance + net income - cash dividend paid = closing retained earnings balance

Cash dividend declared - Cash dividend paid =  Cash dividend payable

$49,000 - Cash dividend paid = $23,600

Cash dividend paid = $49,000 - $23,600

= $25,400

Serggg [28]

The minimum rate of return 12%

Average operating assets = $300,000

Net operating income = $42,000

We know,

Residual Income = Net Operating Income - (Average operating assets x the minimum rate of return)

Residual Income = $42,000 - ($300,000 x 12%)

Residual Income = $42,000 - $36,000

Residual Income = $6,000
