Which statement is true for a short-term goal?

EHealth Corporation has $1,000 par value bonds with 4 years to maturity. The bonds pay an 8% coupon rate with semi-annual coupon

Degger [83]

Answer:

Yield to Maturity(YTM) = 3.47%

Explanation:

<em>The yield to maturity is the required rate of return (discount rate) that would equate the price of the bond and cash outflow expected from the bond. The yield on the bond can be determined as follows using the formula below: </em>

YTM = C + F-P/n) ÷ 1/2 (F+P)

YTM-Yield to maturity-

C- coupon

F- Face Value

P- Current Price

DATA

Coupon = coupon rate × Nominal value = 1,000 × 8%× 1/2=40(note we divide by 2 because interest is paid semi-annually)

n= 4×2 = 8 (note there 2 half months in a year)

Face Value = 1000

YM-?, C-40, Face Value - 1,000, P-103.75/100× 1000 = 1037.5

YM = (40 + (1000-1037)/8) ÷ ( 1/2× (1000 + 1037.5 ) ) =0.0347

YM = 0.0347 × 100 = 3.47%

Yield to Maturity = 3.47%

defon

Answer:

EPS = $1.9825

Explanation:

EPS (earnings per share) = Net Income / shares of common stock outstanding

Income before taxes = $592,000 - $284,000 - $36,000 - $28,000 = $244,000

Tax = $244,000 x 35% = $85,400

Net Income = $244,000 - $85,400 = $158,600

EPS = $158,600 / 80,000 = $1.9825

Hope this helps!

Selling price per unit= $20

Unitary variable cost= $12

<u>To calculate the contribution margin ratio, we need to use the following formula:</u>

contribution margin ratio= (selling price - unitary variable cost) / selling price

contribution margin ratio= (20 - 12) / 20

contribution margin ratio= 0.4

An investor borrows an amount at an annual effective interest rate of 5% and will repay all interest and principal in a lump sum

Ghella [55]

Answer:

d. 101

Explanation:

first we must determine the amount of the loan:

PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 3%)²⁰ = $553.68

PV of coupon payments = $40 x 14.877 (PV annuity factor, 3%, 20 periods) = $595.08

Loan amount = $1,148.76

Future value of the loan = $1,148.76 x (1 + 5%)¹⁰ = $1,871.21

You will receive 20 coupon payments of $40 each, which will be reinvested at 2% semiannual rate. You will also receive $1,000 corresponding to the face value of the bond.

Future value of the coupon payments = $40 x 24.297 (FV annuity factor, 2%, 20 periods)] = $971.88

Total money received at the end of the 10 year period = $971.88 + $1,000 = $1,971.88

Gain = $1,971.88 - $1,871.21 = $100.67 ≈ $101
