Answer: More elastic; Lower

Explanation:

Before the entry of a new firm, there is only one firm exist in the market and that single firm is experiencing a monopoly power. But when there is a entry of its competitor then as a result second firm have to reduce their prices of the products as demand is elastic. We know that market is very sensitive to the prices. This fall in prices will lead to increase the demand for the products but with the lower prices, the marginal revenue of the second firm will be more elastic because of the lower prices.

Workman Software has 8.8 percent coupon bonds on the market with 19 years to maturity. The bonds make semiannual payments and cu
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

current yield 8.2089552%

YTM = 8.05%

effective annual yield = 4.92%

Explanation:

(A)

current yield = C/P

coupon payment / market price

8.8/107.2 = 0.082089552 = 8.2089552%

(B)

P = \frac{C}{2} \times\frac{1-(1+YTM/2)^{-2t} }{YTM/2} + \frac{CP}{(1+YTM/2)^{2t}}

First par being the present value of the coupon payment and second the redeem of the face value at the end of the bond.

market price 107.2

face value 100

time = 19

rate 8.8%

C = annual coupon payment 100 x 8.8% = 8.8

You solve this using a financial calculation and get the semiannual rate

YTM/2 = 0.040268160

then multiply by 2 to get the annual YTM

0.040268160  x 2 =

YTM = 0.08053632 = 8.05%

(C)

Effective Annual Yield

(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY

where:

Holding period return:

\frac{Net \: Return}{Investment} = HPR

In this case:

coupon payment + redem - investment = net return

8.8 * 19 + 100 - 107.2 = 160

160/107.2 = 1.492537313

Then

(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY

(1+1.142537313)^{\frac{365}{19\times365}} -1 = EAY

EAY = 0.049242509 = 4.9242509%
