Answer:

The units of the 5-year zero coupon bond that should be purchased in the optimal portfolio is:

= 6 units

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Spot rates = 5% annually

Yield of a 1-year zero coupon bond = 5%

Yield of a 2-year zero coupon bond = 5%

Yield of a 3-year zero coupon bond = 5%

Yield of a 4-year zero coupon bond = 5%

Yield of a 5-year zero coupon bond = 5%

Yield of a 6-year up to a 10-year zero coupon bond = 5%

Future Monetary Obligations:

YEAR                  1         2         3         4          5         6        7      8      9     10

OBLIGATION 100    200    300     400     500    600    700 800 900 1000

PV factor      1.05 1.1025 1.1576 1.2155 1.2763 etc.

Present value of a 5-year zero coupon bond = $78.35 ($100/1.2763)

Number of units of the 5-year zero coupon bond that should be purchased in the optimal portfolio = 6.382 ($500/$78.35)

= 6 units

Triss [41]

Answer: Average unit cost=$5.800 per unit

Cost of Ending inventory =$3,190

Average unit cost

First purchase= 650 units x $4=$2,600

Second Purchase=750 units x $6 =$4,500

Third Purchase=    850 units x $7 = $5,950

Total Cost =                                     $13,050

Cost of Ending inventory = 550 unts at hand x $5.8 =$3,190
