Answer: b. Riskier over time, and its value will decrease

Explanation:

Because the company is using the investor's required rate of return instead of one that takes into account the riskiness of the two division, you find that risk is not being adequately accounted for.

This would lead to a situation where the company becomes riskier because it is not accounting for its risk properly. With higher risk, the company will be unable to seek funding easily which would lead to lower investments being undertaken and an overall decrease in company value.

You purchase a twenty year zero coupon bond with a yield of 5%. One year later you sell the bond at a yield of 4%. What is your
astraxan [27]

Answer:

25.94%

Explanation:

Assume, Face value of bond =$1000

Purchase price of twenty year zero coupon bond = 1000/((1+i)^N) . Where, yield = 5% =0.05 , N= number of years to maturity =20

==> Purchase Price = 1000/(1.05^20)

Purchase Price = 1000/2.65329770514

Purchase Price = $376.89

Selling Price after one year:  1000/(1+I)^19. Where i=yield=4%=0.04, N=19

Selling Price=1000/(1.04^19)

Selling Price = 1000/2.10684917599

Selling Price = $474.64

Rate of Return = (474.64/376.89) - 1

Rate of Return = 1.25935949481281 - 1

Rate of Return = 0.2594

Rate of Return = 25.94%
