Answer:

$1,453,277.12

$1,899.069.89

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator

Project A

Cash flow in year 0 = $800,000 - $500,000 = $300,000

Cash flow in year 1 = 0

Cash flow in year 2 =0

Cash flow in year 3 =0

Cash flow in year 4 = 1.5 million

NPV =

Poject B

Cash flow in year 0 = $1.2 MILLION

Cash flow in year 2 =0

Cash flow in year 3 =0

Cash flow in year 4 = -1.1 MILLION

NPV =

Present value is the sum of discounted cash flows

Present value can be calculated using a financial calculator

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

Answer:

The bonds were issued at $220,879,628.13

This is lower than the face value to compensate for the lower coupon payment.

Discount on BP 539,156.67 credit

cash 13,000,000.00 credit

--to record Dec 31st, 2025 payment--

Explanation:

To determinate the price we will solve for the present value of the coupon payment and maturity at the market rate of %12

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

Coupon payment:

260,000,000 x 10% x 1/2 =13,000,000.000

time 20 years x 2 payment per year 40

yield to maturity 12% / 2 = 6%

$13000000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-40} }{0.06} = PV\\$

PV $195,601,859.3298

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 260,000,000.00

time 40.00

rate 0.06

$\frac{260000000}{(1 + 0.06)^{40} } = PV$

PV 25,277,768.80

PV c $195,601,859.3298

PV m $25,277,768.8042

Total $220,879,628.1340

For the journal entries, we will multiply this current market price of the bonds by the market rate (YTM) the difference between this and the actual cash obligation generate by the bond is the amortization of the discount.

<u>first interest payment </u>

$220,879,628.13 x 6% = 13,252,777.69

less actual cash outlay: 13,000,000

amortization 252,777.69

<u>second interest payment</u>

($220,879,628.13- $252,777.69) x 6% = 13,267,944.35

less actual cash outlay: <u> 13,000,000.00</u>

amortization 267,944.35

Two gamblers bet $1 each on the successive tosses of acoin. Each has a bank of $6. What is the probability that:a They break eve

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Part a: The probability of breaking even in 6 tosses is 0.3125.

Part b: The probability that one payer wins all the money after the 10th toss is 0.0264.

Explanation:

Part a

P(success)=1/2=0.5

P(Failure)=1/2=0.5

Now for the break-even at the sixth toss

P(Break Even)=P(3 success out of 6)

P(3 success out of 6)

$=^6C_3/(2^6)\\=5/16\\=0.3125$

So the probability of breaking even in 6 tosses is 0.3125.

Part b:

So the probability that one of the player wins all the money after the 10th toss is given as the tenth toss is given as a win so

Wins in 9 tosses is given as 9!/7!=72

The probability that the other person wins

Wins in 8 out of 10 tosses is given as 10!/8!(10-8)!=10!/8!2!=45

So the probability of all the money is won by one of the gambler after the 10th toss is given as

P=number of wins in 9 tosses-Number of wins in 10 tosses/total number of tosses

P=(72-45)/2^16

P=0.0264

So the probability that one payer wins all the money after the 10th toss is 0.0264.

Nathan and Diana are married and have three married children and seven minor grandchildren. For tax year 2020, what is the maxim

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

Maximum amount that can be given to family (including the sons- and daughters-in-law) without using unified transfer tax credit is $390,000.

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Nathan and Diana are married and they have 3 married children, meaning Nathan and Diana also have 3 daughters/sons in law married to their children. In addition, they have 7 minor grand children.

Number of donees will be ⇒ 3 + 3 + 7 = 13

Now, we know that; The annual gift tax exclusion for 2019-2020 is $15,000 per donee or individual for every tax payer while that of married couple is $30,000.

Meaning Nathan and Diana can give $30,000as a gift to each of their family members without using any of their unified transfer tax credit.

Hence,

Maximum amount that can be given to family (including the sons- and daughters-in-law) without using unified transfer tax credit will be;

⇒ 13 × $30,000

= $390,000.
