Answer:
(b) 1440
Explanation:
As the coupon rate of 8% is greater than the yield to maturity (YTM) of 6% annually, the bond is selling at a premium. Hence, the bond will be called at the earliest i.e. 15 years.
Coupon = Call Price * Semi-annual coupon rate = X * [0.08 / 2] = X * 0.04
Yield to call = 6% annually = 3% semi-annually
Time = 15 years * 2 = 30
We know that,
Current Price of bond = Coupon * [1 - (1 + YTC)-call date] / YTC + Call Price / (1 + YTC)call date
- 1,722.25 = [X * 0.04] * [1 - (1 + 0.03)-30] / 0.03 + [X / (1 + 0.03)30]
- 1,722.25 = [X * 0.04] * 19.60 + [X * 0.41]
- 1,722.25 = X * [(0.04 * 19.60) + 0.41]
- X = 1,722.25 / 1.194
-
X=$ 1,442.42 \approx $ 1,440
Answer:
1) The correct answer is letter "C": spending on goods to be used in future production.
2) The correct answer is letter "B": is considered unsold inventory and counted as a part of investment in current GDP.
Explanation:
1) The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) considers four (4) components: <em>Consumption, Investment, Government, </em>and <em>Net Exports</em> (exports-imports). Investments refer to all goods that are purchased to produce other goods in the future. Final goods to be used or to replace others do not fall into this category.
2) The output of a company is computed within the GDP. Even if the output is not sold after production but it is recorded as part of an organization's inventory, it will be considered in the calculation of the GDP of the year when the production of the good took place.
Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Explanation:
Diversification is a business strategy in which a company enters a field or market different from its core activity. It is a risk management strategy that mixes a wide variety of investments within a portfolio by allocating capital in a way that reduces the exposure to any one particular asset or risk.
Diversification merits strong consideration whenever a single-business company is faced with diminishing market opportunities and stagnating sales in its principal business.
