Answer:

10.51%

Explanation:

The computation of the bond equivalent yield is shown below:

Given that

Par value at redemption = $10,000

Bond price = $9,720

Number of days of maturity = 100 days

Now

Profit of holding this bond = Par value at redemption - Bond purchase price

= $10,000 - $9,720

= $280

Now yield from the 100 days

= profit from holding the bond ÷ Purchase price of the bond

= $280÷  $9,720 × 100

= 2.88

Now the yield annualized is

= 2.88 × 365 days ÷ 100 days

= 10.51%

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

5.4%

Explanation:

Several years ago the Haverford Company sold a $1,000 par value bond that now has 25 years to maturity and an 8.00% annual coupon that is paid quarterly. The bond currently sells for $900.90, and the company’s tax rate is 40%. What is the component cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation

Face value of bond = coupon amount / interest rate

1000 = 80 / 8%

Therefore 900.9 = 80 / revised interest rate

multiply both sides by the 'revised interest rate

revised interest rate x 900.9 = 80

Hence, revised interest rate = 80  / 900.9 = 9%

Secondly if the company’s tax rate is 40%, the component cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation = kd (1 - t)

where:

kd = Cost of debt

t = tax rate

Therefore cost of debt for use in the WACC calculation = 9% (1-0.4) = 5.4%

svlad2 [7]

 

<span>One firm that is historically low and deals with negatively correlated stock markets is Gold Extraction Companies. They are have very low correction with overall stock markets. The basic reason for this low correlation is that, as the stock market become bearish, investor sentiment becomes weak, due to which most of the investors withdraw their money from stock market. Now once investor has withdrawn the money from stock market , they search on safe investments which will provide them good reruns, Gold is one of the investment which is relatively safe and provide high returns. Thus withdrawn money from the share market is invested in gold by investors. Thus Gold prices and companies related to extraction of gold have very less correlation to the gold.</span>

Giving the following information:

Monthly deposit= $70

Interest rate= 0.12/12= 0.01

n= 24*12= 288

<u>To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:</u>

FV= {A*[(1+i)^n-1]}/i

A= monthly deposit

FV= {70*[(1.01^288) - 1]} / 0.01

FV= $115,928.81

Vika [28.1K]

Answer and Explanation:

a. The computation of the current price per share is shown below:

Current price per share = Value of Firm  ÷ Number of stock outstanding

where,

Value of Firm is

= $800,000 ÷ 1.13 + $1,250,000  ÷ 1.13^2

= $1,686,897.96

And, the number of outstanding shares is 35,000 shares

So, the current share price is

= $1,686,897.96 ÷ 35,000 shares  

= $48.20

c. The computation of the shares of stock sold is shown below:

No of shares of stock must be sold is

= ($910,000 - $800,000) ÷ 48.20

= $2,282.16

c. The computation of the new price per share of stock is shown below:

Current price per share = Value of Firm  ÷ Number of stock outstanding

where,

Value of Firm is

= $910,000 ÷ 1.13 +  $1,250,000 ÷ 1.13^2

= $1,784,243.09

And, the number of outstanding shares is 35,000 shares and $2,282.16

So, the current share price is

= $1,784,243.09  ÷ 35,000 shares  + $2,282.16

= $47.86

UNO [17]

Answer:

d.​regardless of what Ocean knew or could have discovered.

Explanation:

The uniform commercial code are a set of rules that govern transactions involving sale of goods. One of such rules is the implied warranty of merchantability.

When goods are sold there is an implied warranty that the item will perform up to a particular level.

For example if one buys a television not is expected that the television will work. If it does not come on, implied warranty has been breached.

So in this case regardless of what Ocean knew or could have discovered, selling defective goods is a breach of implied warranty of merchantability.
