Pentex and Marbro, small companies in the stationery business, each had a dollar gross margin of $20,000 during September 2014.

natima [27]

Answer:

20%

Explanation:

Since the gross margin is $20,000 and the gross margin percentage of Pentex is 10%, so from this information we can find out the sales value which is shown below:

Gross profit percentage = Gross profit ÷ sales

10% = $20,000 ÷ sales

So, the sales would be $200,000

Since the Pentex sales is twice of Marbro

So, the Marbro sales would be half of Pentex sales

So, the Marbro sales would be $100,000

Now the Marbro gross profit percentage would be

= $20,000 ÷ $100,000

= $20%

A bond with a face value of $6,000 and an annual coupon rate of 12% convertible semiannually will mature in ten years for its fa

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Premium is $2,677.95

The premium amortization on the 7th payment is $119

Explanation:

In order to arrive at the premium on the bond,it is necessary to compute the issuing price of the bond,which can be done using the pv formula in excel as shown below:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

rate is the semi-annual yield to maturity on the bond which is 6%/2=3%

nper is the number of coupon interest payable by the bond,which is 10 years multiplied by 2=20

pmt is the semi-annual coupon payable by the bond i.e 12%/2*$6000=$360

fv is the face value of the bond which is $6,000

=-pv(3%,20,360,6000)

pv=$8,677.95

premium=issue price -face value

premium=$$8,677.95-$6,000

premium=$2,677.95

The premium amortization is the excess of coupon payment over the interest expense.

In the attached, I calculated the premium amortization on the 7th payment.

I started by taking the issue price of $8677.95 ,added interest expense at 3% semi-annually ,deducted the coupon payment of $360,thereby leaving the outstanding balance at end of the year.

Note that the premium amortization is the excess of coupon payment over interest expense as colored coded.

= $2470000 - $2256000

= $214000

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Misstatement of age

Explanation:

If the insurance company knows that a person has intentionally lied about his/her age, they will adjust the insurance amount and premium to match the correct age of the insured. E.g. in this case, Lisa will probably be required to pay a higher premium on her policy, and depending on her age, the insurance amount might be lower.
