Answer:

5.31%

Explanation:

FV = 1000

Coupon rate = 5.7%

No of compound = 2

Interest per period = $28.5

Bond price = $1048

No of years to maturity = 20

No of compounding till maturity = 40

Coupon rate set on new bonds = Rate(Nper, PMT, -PV, FV) * 2

Coupon rate set on new bonds = Rate(40, 28.5, -1048, 1000) * 2

Coupon rate set on new bonds = 0.02655 * 2

Coupon rate set on new bonds = 0.0531

Coupon rate set on new bonds = 5.31%

Omega Company reported the following information for the company's two products: Product X Product Y Selling price per unit $ 35
Elena L [17]

Answer:

Omega Company

B) Product Y should be produced because it will produce greater total profit.

Explanation:

If only Product X is produced, the total profit it will produced is:

Selling price = $35

Variable Cost = $20

Contribution = $15

Total Contribution = $15 x 75,000/4 = $281,250

If only Product Y is produced, the total profit will be:

Selling price = $25

Variable cost = $15

Contribution = $10

Total Contribution = $10 x 75,000/2 = $375,000

Product Y therefore produces a greater total profit.  This is because the fixed cost will remain the same if there are no avoidable elements.

tangare [24]

Answer: Peripheral route.

Explanation:

Persuasion is the ability to convince one or more people about something, to think in a certain way, or to do something in particular.

The persuasion follows two routes; the central route, and the peripheral route:

  • The central route of persuasion occurs when the person is persuaded by the message received.
  • The peripheral route of persuasion occurs when the person is persuaded by something different than the message, such as how the message is presented.

In this case, Trevor was guided by what he saw to decide, so he followed the peripheral route of persuasion.

At the beginning of the year, Sigma Company's balance sheet reported Total Assets of $195,000 and Total Liabilities of $75,000.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The answer is: Equity at the end of the year will be $123,000

Explanation:

At the beginning of the year the balance sheet was as following:

assets $195,000                   liabilities $75,000

                                              equity $ 120,000

Then during the year the income statement is:

  • total revenues $226,000
  • <u>total expenses $175,000  </u>
  • net income       $ 51,000 (this increases assets and equity)

If the owners withdrew $48,000, then cash and equity will decrease.

The ending balance for the year:

assets $195,000 + $51,000          liabilities $75,000

           -$48,000 =                         equity $120,000 + $51,000 - $48,000 =

           $198,000                                       $123,000

Contracts are a form of private law because the terms contained within a contract bind the relevant parties, not the public as a
sasho [114]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option A: True.

Explanation:

To begin with, the contracts inside the law are regulated by the Anglo-America common law that defines a contract as the agreement between two or more parties in which they establish the basis and principles of the agreement and the clauses that could cause to end the contract. Moreover, a contract is also part of the civil law and therefore that it does not implicate the public as a whole in any way due to the fact that in order to be a correct contract the parties must accept the bond between only them and nobody else.
