n 105,000 kilometers during a year, the average operating cost is 11.4 cents per kilometer. If a truck is driven only 70,000 kilometers during a year, the average operating cost increases to 13.4 cents per kilometer. Required: 1. Using the high-low method, estimate the variable operating cost per kilometer and the annual fixed operating cost associated with the fleet of trucks. 2. Express the variable and fixed costs in the form Y = a + bX. 3. If a truck were driven 80,000 kilometers during a year, what total operating cost would you expect to be incurred?

Answer:

The answer is "4200"

Explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file:

Calculating the variable cost in km:

= \frac{(105,000 \times 0.114 - 70,000 \times 0.134)}{(35,000)} \\\\ = \frac{(11,970 - 9,380)}{(35,000)} \\\\ = \frac{2,590}{(35,000)} \\\\ =0.074

Calculating the fixed cost:

= (105,000 \times 0.114) - (105,000 \times 0.074) \\\\ = (11,970) - (7,770) \\\\=4,200

Answer:

c. $4,025,200

Explanation:

The computation of the total cash receipts from sales and collections in April month is shown below:

= April sales × cash sales percentage + April sales × credit sales percentage × collection month percentage + March sales  credit sales percentage × Following month collection percentage

= $4,000,000 ×30% + $4,000,000 × 70% × 40% + $4,200,000 × 70% × 58%

= $1,200,000 + $1,120,000 + $1,705,200

= $4,025,200

Since cash sales are 30% , so the credit sales would be 70%

Bond J has a coupon of 7.6 percent. Bond K has a coupon of 11.6 percent. Both bonds have 12 years to maturity and have a YTM of
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Bond J has a coupon of 7.6%  

Bond K has a coupon of 11.6%

12 years to maturity and YTM of 8.2%

first we must determine the current market price of both bonds using the yield to maturity formula:

YTM = {C + [(FV - PV) / n]} /  [(FV + PV) / 2]

  • YTM = 8.2%
  • C = coupon payment = $76 and $116
  • FV = face value or value at maturity = $1,000
  • PV = present value or current market value = ???
  • n = 12 years

current market value of Bond J:

0.082 = {76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]} /  [(1,000 + PV) / 2]

[(1,000 + PV) / 2]  x 0.082 = 76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]

41 + 0.041PV = 76 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.124PV = 118.33

PV = 118.33 / 0.124 = $954.27

current market value of Bond K:

41 + 0.041PV = 116 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.124PV = 158.33

PV = 158.33 / 0.124 = $1,276.85

a. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2.2 percent, what is the percentage price change of these bonds?

YTM = {C + [(FV - PV) / n]} /  [(FV + PV) / 2]

  • YTM = 8.2% + 2.2% = 10.4%
  • C = coupon payment = $76 and $116
  • FV = face value or value at maturity = $1,000
  • PV = present value or current market value = ???
  • n = 12 years

market value of Bond J:

0.102 = {76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]} /  [(1,000 + PV) / 2]

[(1,000 + PV) / 2]  x 0.102 = 76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]

102 + 0.051PV = 76 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.134PV = 157.33

PV = 57.33 / 0.134 = $427.84

market value of Bond K:

102 + 0.051PV = 116 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.134PV = 97.33

PV = 97.33 / 0.134 = $726.34

Bond J's market price will decrease by ($427.84 - $954.27) / $954.27 = -55.17%

Bond K's market price will decrease by ($726.34 - $1,276.85) / $1,276.85 = -43.11%

b. If interest rates suddenly fall by 2.2 percent, what is the percentage price change of these bonds?

YTM = {C + [(FV - PV) / n]} /  [(FV + PV) / 2]

  • YTM = 6%
  • C = coupon payment = $76 and $116
  • FV = face value or value at maturity = $1,000
  • PV = present value or current market value = ???
  • n = 12 years

current market value of Bond J:

0.06 = {76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]} /  [(1,000 + PV) / 2]

[(1,000 + PV) / 2]  x 0.06 = 76 + [(1,000 - PV) / 12]

30 + 0.030PV = 76 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.113PV = 129.33

PV = 129.33 / 0.113 = $1,144.51

current market value of Bond K:

30 + 0.030PV = 116 + 83.33 - 0.083PV

0.113PV = 169.33

PV = 169.33 / 0.113 = $1,498.50

Bond J's market price will increase by ($1,144.51 - $954.27) / $954.27 = 19.94%

Bond K's market price will increase by ($1,498.50 - $1,276.85) / $1,276.85 = 17.36%
