Answer:

13.28%

Explanation:

The computation of the coupon rate is shown below

But before that determine the PMT

Given that

NPER = 12 × 2 = 24

RATE = 10% ÷ 2 = 5%

PV = $1,226.50

FV = $1,000;

The formula is shown below

= PMT(RATE;NPER;-PV;FV;TYPE)

After applying the above formula, the monthly payment is

= $66.41 × 2

= $132.82

Now the coupon rate is

= $132.82 ÷ $1,000

= 13.28%

Natali [406]

Explanation:

i=interest rate

X=current rate

2X = double current rate

n = number of years

Calculate time it takes to double at 3%:

2X = X(1+i)^n

simplify by cancelling out X

(1+i)^n = 2

substitute i = 3%

(1.03)^n =2

take log

n*log(1.03)  = log(2)

n = log(2)/log(1.03) = 0.6931/0.02956 = 23.45 years

Similarly, for growth rate of 7%,

n = log(2)/log(1.07) = 0.6931 / 0.06766 = 10.24 years

So the difference is 23.45-10.24 = 13.21 years (to the hundredth)  sooner

Suppose a large country experiences economic growth which results in a reduced willingness to trade. The country’s terms of trad
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": improve; rise.

Explanation:

Terms of Trade measures the efficiency of a country's trade. It is a ratio which compares the exports of a country with its imports. It is <em>calculated by dividing the export value by the import value, and by multiplying the result by one hundred (100)</em>. A terms of trade figure higher than 100, means a country exporting goods at a higher value than its imports.

<em>Given the case that there is no willingness to trade in an economy after a growth, the most possible scenario to take place is that the trade terms will </em>improve <em>as a result of the decrease in the demand of imports and assuming the level of exports keeps at the constant level that allowed the economic growth or if it even </em>rises<em>.</em>

On January​ 1, 2017, Walker Sales issued​ $19,000 in bonds for​ $14,300. These are​ eight-year bonds with a stated rate of​ 13%,
AysviL [449]

Answer:

$14,887.5

Explanation:

Carrying Value of the bond is the net of Face value and any amortised discount on the bond.

Face Value of the bond = $19,000

Issuance Value = $14,300

Discount Value = $19,000 - $14,300 = $4,700

This Discount will be amortized over the bond's life until the maturity on straight line basis.

Amortization in each period = $4,700 / (8x2) = $293.75 semiannually

Until December 31, 2017 two payment have been made and $587.5 is amortized in the two semiannual periods.

Un-amortized Discount = $4,700 - $587.5 = $4,112.5

Carrying value of the bond  = Face value - Un-amortized Discount = $19,000 - $4,112.5 = $14,887.5

Ups devices typically have capacities that may run up to __________ va.
Brut [27]
<span>Ups devices typically have capacities that may run up to  1000 va.

UPS (uninterrupted power supply) is designed so an electrical equipment could still provide an emergency source of power in case the main power input fails to do so. In order to fulfill this function, a UPS device requires a pretty high voltage capacity.</span>
