Answer:

Zero-cupon bond= $612.52

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Face value= $1,000

Number of periods= 5 years

Interest rate= 10.3% = 0.103

<u>To calculate the price of the bond, we need to use the following formula:</u>

<u></u>

Zero-cupon bond= [face value/(1+i)^n]

Zero-cupon bond= [1,000 / (1.103^5)]

Zero-cupon bond= $612.52

A man has $245,000 invested in three properties. One earns 12%, one 10% and one 8%. His annual income from the properties is $23
astraxan [27]

Answer:

for 8% investment = $110000

for 12% investment = $55000

for 10% investment =  $80000

annual income for each property is

x amount for 8% investment = $8800

y amount for 12% investment = $6600

z amount for 10% investment = $8000

Explanation:

Given data

investment = $245000

rate 1 = 12%

rate 2 = 10%

rate 3 = 8%

annual income = $23400

rate = 8%  twice that invested at 12%

to find out

invested in each property and  the annual income from each property

solution

let us consider x amount for 8% investment

and consider y amount for 12% investment

and consider z amount for 10% investment

from question we say,  8% is twice that invested at 12%

x = 2y      ........1

and

x + y + z = 245000      .............2

put 1 in equation 2

2y + y + z = 245000  

z = 245000 - 3y            ...................3

and we can say that

0.08x + 0.12y + 0.10z = 23400              ...........................4

put equation 1 and 3 in 4

0.08(2y) + 0.12y + 0.10( 245000 - 3y ) = 23400

0.16y + 0.12y - 0.3y = -1100

0.02y = 1100

y = $55000

so x = 2(y) = 2(5500) = $110000

and z = 245000 - 3(55000) = $80000

so annual income for each property is

x amount for 8% investment = 0.08 × 110000 = $8800

y amount for 12% investment = 0.12 × 55000 = $6600

z amount for 10% investment = 0.10 × 80000 = $8000

A $200 petty cash fund has cash of $20 and receipts of $177. The journal entry to replenish the account would include a credit t
nalin [4]

Answer:

a. Cash for $180

Explanation:

The receipts from the petty cash fund indicate that the owner of the box made purchases adding up to $177. Therefore that money is no longer part of the fund. Since the fund holds $200 and currently only has $20 then to replenish the account the journal entry would need to include a credit to cash for $180 ... ($200-$20=$180)

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

On January 1, 2015, East Lansing, Inc, issues $2,000,000 of 10 percent, 5-year bonds that pay interest of $100,000 semiannually.
Trava [24]

Answer:

The answer is option D

Explanation:

The bond can be issued at par, at a discount or at a premium depending on the coupon rate and the market interest. The price of the bond which pays semi annual coupon can be calculated using the formula of bond price. The formula to calculate the price of the bond is attached.

First we need to determine the semi annual coupon payment, periods and YTM.

Semi annual coupon payments = 2000000 * 0.1 * 6/12 = 100000

Semi annual periods = 5 * 2 = 10

Semi annual YTM = 0.08 * 6/12 = 0.04

Bond Price = 100000 * [(1 - (1+0.04)^-10) / 0.04]  +  2000000 / (1+0.04)^10

Bond Price = $2162217.916

The price of the bond is thus $2162290 approx. The difference in answers is due to rounding off.
