Jim Busby calls his broker to inquire about purchasing a bond of Disk Storage Systems. The broker quotes a price of $1,180. Jim

is concerned that the bond might be overpriced based on the facts involved. The $1,000 par value bond pays 14 percent interest, and it has 25 years remaining until maturity. The current yield to maturity on similar bonds is 12 percent. Compute the new price of the bond.

Answer:

Jim Busby and Bonds of Disk Storage Systems

The new price of the bond is:

= $21,059

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Quoted price of bond = $1,180

Face value of bond = $1,000

Coupon interest rate = 14%

Bond's maturity period = 25 years

Current yield to maturity = 12%

Therefore, new price of the bond is computed as follows:

Bond Price = C* (1-(1+r)-n/r ) + F/(1+r)n

where C = Periodic coupon payment = $140 ($1,000 * 14%)

• F = Face / Par value of bond = $1,000

• r = Yield to maturity (YTM) = 12% and

• n = No. of periods till maturity = 25 years

= $140 * (1 – (1+0.12)^-25)/0.12 +$1000/(1+0.12)^25

= $140 * (1 - -17.00)/0.12 + $1,000/17.00

= $140 * (18.00)/0.12 + $1,000/17.00

= $140 * 150 + $59

= $21,000 + $59

= $21,059

The overhead costs in a highly automated factory are expected to increase at an annual compound rate of 10 percent for the next
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

The annual worth of the overhead costs for 7 year-period is

A = $389743.42.

<em>Then the time value of the annual worth is discounted by 8%</em>

∴  $389743.42 x 0.08 = $31179.47.

Explanation:

Using the formula

A = P(1 + r/n){nt}

Where:

A = ?

t = 7

P = $200,000.00

r = 10%

n= 1

TVM =8%

∴ A = $200,000.00(1 + 0.10/1){1 * 7}

A = $200,000.00(1.10){7}

A = $200,000.00(1.9487171)

A = $389743.42

<em>Then the time value of the annual worth is discounted by 8%</em>

∴  $389743.42 x 0.08 = $31179.47

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Socialism involves an economic ideology in which the government or state plays a strong role in the economy and may own stakes in certain businesses

Explanation:

Socialism is an Economic system owned, managed & run by state (government). The central problems of economy : what, how, for whom to produce - are solved by state. State decisions are based on social welfare guidelines. Market forces are insignificant, private accumulation of property is not there.

However, in Capitalist system - resources are owned, managed, controlled by private sector. The central problems of economy are solved by private sector, as per market forces & profit maximisation guideline. Private accumulation of property is allowed. The system has two classes : Bourgeoisie (Capitalist wealthy entrepreneur class) & Proletariat (Labourers)

So, Socialism having everything under state control, has no classes -Bourgeoisie (entrepreneurs) & Proletariat (Labourers). Hence, it is a Classless Economic System
