Answer:

2.69%

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Face value (FV) = $1,000

Time period = 5 years

Present Value (PV) = $1,438.04

Coupon rate = 14%

Payment (pmt) = 14% × $1,000 = $140

So, by using excel function find YTM, we get

YTM = 4.13%

So, After Tax cost = Rate ( 1 - tax rate)

= 4.13% ( 1 - 35%)

= 4.13% × 65%

= 2.685% or 2.69%

Excel function is attached below.

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

C. A smaller proportion of the last monthly payment will be interest, and a larger proportion will be principal, than for the first monthly payment.

Explanation:

I prepared a summary of an amortization schedule to explain this:

principal = $100,000

r = 8% annual

n = 360 months

first payment = $733.76: $666.67 are interests and only $67.09 reduces principal

second payment = $733.76: $665.95 are interests and only $67.54 reduces principal

last payment = $733.76: $4.90 are interests and only $728.86 reduces principal to $0

Your company has spent $290,000 on research to develop a new computer game. The firm is planning to spend $49,000 on a machine t
Maslowich

Answer:

$132,745.82

Explanation:

required investment = $290,000 + $49,000 + $5,900 + $59,000 =  $403,900

depreciable amount = $49,000 + $5,900 = $54,900

Research and development costs are expensed, they cannot be capitalized. Increase in net working capital cannot be capitalized either.

MACRS depreciation expense for year 1 under 8 year class life = 14.29%

depreciation expense year 1 = $54,900 x 14.29% = $7,845.21

net cash flow year 1 = [($390,000 - $190,000 - $7,845.21) x (1 - 35%)] + $7,845.21 = ($192,154.79 x 0.65) + $7,845.21 = $124,900.61 + $7,845.21 = $132,745.82

Answer:

compromise

Explanation:

Compromise as a conflict resolution strategy is one that involves finding acceptable reasons such that all the parties involved in the conflict have their concerns satisfied partly.

The project manager saying "You both will have to give up something to solve this problem" means that both parties involved in the conflict will have to come to an agreement that suits or benefits both parties.

Cheers.

A monopolist that practices perfect price discrimination has the same deadweight loss triangle as the single-price monopolist.
beks73 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option B: False.

Explanation:

To begin with, the price discrimination strategy refers to a technique used by the companies in order to charge different prices to the different consumers regarding the fact of how much would they be able to pay for the product. When it comes to monopolies, a perfect price discrimination strategy would try as best as possible to capture the majority of the zone known as the <em>"consumer surplus"</em>. And that is why that a company with a perfect price discrimination would face a small deadweight loss area due to the fact that with that strategy of price the monopolist will absorve as much as possible of that area becuase the triangle is half consumer surplus and half producer surplus.
