Calculation of the average rate of return for this investment

Average rate of return (ARR) is a financial ratio that is used to determine the rate of return that is expected from an asset over its lifetime. ARR is calculated as the total income from the assets divided by the initial investment on the assets.

The average rate of return for this investment can be calculated as follows:

Total income form operations over five years = $100,000 + $40,000 + $40,000 $ $10,000 + $10,000 = $200,000

Average income = Total income form operations over five years / Number of years = $200,000 / 5 = $40,000

Average rate of return for this investment = Average income / Cost of Machine = $40,000 / $490,000 = 0.08, or 8%

Therefore, the average rate of return is <u>8%</u>.

Bond Valuation and Changes in Maturity and Required Returns Suppose Hillard Manufacturing sold an issue of bonds with a 10-year
g100num [7]

Answer:

It will be sold at $1,186.71

Explanation:

We will calculate the present value of the cuopon payment and the maturity at the new market rate of 7%

<u>The coupon payment will be calcualte as the PV of ordinary annuity</u>

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C $50 (1,000 x 10%/2 as there are 2 payment per year)

time    16 (8 years x 2 payment per year)

rate     0.035 (7% rate / 2 payment per year)

50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.035)^{-16} }{0.035} = PV\\

PV $604.7058

<u>The maturity will be calculate as the PV of a lump sum</u>

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  1,000.00

time         8 years

rate  0.07

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.07)^{8} } = PV  

PV   582.01

<u>The market price will be the sum of both:</u>

PV cuopon $604.7058

PV maturity  $582.0091

Total $1,186.7149
