Answer:= $471,325

Explanation:

Price of a bond = Present value of coupon payments + Present value of face value at maturity

Coupon payments = 500,000 * 11% * 1/2 years = $27,500  

Periodic yield = 12%/ 2 = 6% per semi annual period  

Periods = 10 * 2 = 20 semi annual periods

Coupon payment is constant so it is an annuity.  

Price of bond = Present value of annuity + Present value of face value at maturity  

= (Annuity * Present value interest factor of Annuity, 6%, 20 years) + Face value / (1 + rate) ^ number of periods  

= (27,500 * 11.4699) + 500,000 / (1 + 6%)²⁰  

= $471,325

Nata [24]

Answer:

merge law and equity

Explanation:

In resolving labour related or welfare issues the best way to do so will be to hear the grievances of the striking workers and try to find an equitable solution to the situation.

However if all reasonable avenues have been pursued and they still don't want to comply, then legal measures can be taken to make them work.

In this scenario Reginald should call the striking workers and try to come to an equitable solution for the business and workers where there will be a win-win.

If this does not work he can use the law to compel them to comply.

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Value of the bond = $862.013

Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment and the redemption value (RV).

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV

The value of the bond can be worked out as follows:

Step 1

<em>Calculate the PV of Interest payment </em>

Present value of the interest payment

PV = Interest payment × (1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

Interest payment = $40

PV = 40 × (1 - (1.05)^(-12×2)/0.05)

= 40 × 13.7986

= 551.945

Step 2

<em>PV of redemption Value </em>

PV of RV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)

= 1000 × (1.05)^(-12×2)

= 310.067

Step 3

<em>Calculate Value of the bond  </em>

= 551.94567 + 310.067

=862.01

Value of the bond = $862.013
