Answer:

$814.10

Explanation:

Calculation to determine what the price of the bond now

Using this formula

Bond price = PV of coupon payments + PV of face value

Bond price= C×((1 / r) – {1 / [r(1 + r)t]}) + FV / (1 + r)t

Let plug in the formula

Bond price= [(.080 ×$1,000) / 2] ×[[1 / (.12 / 2)] – (1 / {(.12 / 2)[1 + (.12 / 2)](7 ×2)})] + $1,000 / [1 + (.12 / 2)](7 ×2)

Bond price= $814.10

Therefore the price of the bond now is $814.10

Wang Co. manufactures and sells a single product that sells for $640 per unit; variable costs are $352 per unit. Annual fixed co
yarga [219]

Answer:

The correct answer is 45%.

Explanation:

According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

Selling price = $640

Variable cost = $352

Annual fixed cost = $985,500

Current sales volume = $4,390,000

So, we can calculate the contribution margin ratio by using following formula:

Contribution margin ratio = (Contribution margin per unit ÷ selling price per unit ) × 100

Where, Contribution Margin = Selling price - Variable cost

= $640 - $352 = $288

So, by putting the value in the formula, we get

Contribution margin ratio = ( $288 ÷ $640 ) × 100

= 0.45 × 100

= 45%

A furnace repair team services a design capacity of 6 furnaces per day with an effective capacity of 5 furnaces per day. What is
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

66.7%

Explanation:

Given that,

Design capacity = 6 furnaces per day

Effective capacity = 5 furnaces per day

Efficiency ratio if it repairs an average of 4 furnaces per day:

= (Actual capacity ÷ Possible capacity) × 100

= (4 per day ÷ 6 per day) × 100

= 0.667 × 100

= 66.7%

Therefore, the efficiency ratio is 66.7 percent.

What impact can good accountability mechanisms have on the admissibility of evidence in court cases? enables encryption of the e
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Option A, ENABLES ENCRYPTION OF THE EVIDENCE.

Explanation:

Admissible evidence, in a court of law, is any testimonial, documentary, or tangible evidence that is introduced to a judge or jury to prove a point (put forth by a party to the proceeding) or element in a case.

However, before an evidence can be used in a case, it must be considered admissible. And for an evidence to be admissible, it must be relevant and not excluded by rules of evidence (generally means it must not be prejudicial and must be reliable).

The government can be viewed as mechanism of accountability, particularly from a provider to a purchaser. Thus, a task for regulation is to set norms which would help make that accountability process fair and effective, this is referred to as the mechanism.

A good accountability mechanism is beneficial in the following ways:

* It has impact on admissibility of evidence in court cases.

* it allows nonrepudiation (it means sufficient evidence exists such that a user can not defend an action).

* It enables encryption of the evidence. Encryption means is the process of encoding a message or information in such a way that only authorized parties can access it and unauthorized parties cannot.

Therefore, option A best suits the question, the impact that a good accountability mechanism has on on the admissibility of evidence in court cases is that it ENABLES THE ENCRYPTION OF THE EVIDENCE.
