-BARSIC- [3]

1) Answer: When the required return is equal to the coupon rate, the bond value is equal to the par value,

2) if the required return is less than the coupon rate the bond will sell at a premium.

Explanation:

1) The reason for this that the required return is the market or investors required rate of return for a particular bond, when the required rate and coupon rate are equal it means that the investor is getting the return he wants in coupon payments, therefore the investor will be willing to buy the bond on par value, as he is getting his required return in the form of coupon payments.

2) When the required return is less than the coupon rate the investor is getting more in coupons than he required from the bond so the bonds price will be higher than par so that the return from the coupons become equal to the required rate of return. Thats why when a bonds required return is less than the coupon it sells on a premium.

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Closing NCI = $234,300 + $69,000 = $303,300

Explanation:

The Question is to identify the non-controlling interes in Ramirez Corporation

First we determine the Net income of Ramirez

Net Income = Revenues - Expenses

= $635,000 - $405,000 = $230,000

The next step is to dtermine the value of non -controling interest in teh net income of Ramirez.

Non-Controlling Interest in Net Income = NCI percentge x Net Income

= 30% x $230,000 = $69,000

Finally, based on these calculations , we can compute the Closing Balance of Non-Controlling Interest

The formula = Opening Non-Controlling Interest + Non-controlling Interest Share of Net income

Closing NCI = $234,300 + $69,000 = $303,300

What is the rate of return when 30 shares of Stock

sattari [20]

Answer:

-0.67%

Explanation:

We are told that 30 shares of Stock are purchased for $30/share..

This gives a total value of: 30 × 30 = $900.

Now,they are sold for $900 with a commission of $6. This means the final money getting to the seller is; 900 - 6 = $894.

Thus; rate of return percentage = (894 - 900)/894) × 100% = -0.67%
