Answer:
9.78%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity can be determined using the rate formula in excel as shown below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is number of times coupon interest would be paid,which is 12 years multiplied by 2(semi-annual interest payment) i.e 24
pmt is the semi-annual interest which is $1000*8%/2=$40
pv is the current price of the bond at $876.40
fv is the face value of the bond which is $1000
=rate(24,40,-876.40,1000)=4.89%
Semi-annual yield is 4.89%
Annual yield is 4.89%*2=9.78%
The yield to maturity on these bonds is approximately 9.78%
Answer:
1. Apart from helping to know the average cost of a product, analyzing fixed and variable cost will help to derive the break even point.
2. Profit will go down
Explanation:
1. The size of the selling price and the variable cost determine contribution per unit of a product. Contribution per unit is Price minus variable cost. This shows the contribution of sales revenue towards covering the fixed cost of a product.
2. Relevant range is the estimated or budgeted activity level which defines a business volume of production or operation, it is both maximum and minimum threshold within which the entity must operate to expect certain level of cost and revenue.
Sometimes fixed costs are fixed within a relevant range of activities and outside such range, fixed cost may become variable, which will all things being equal impact negatively on the price.
Also, within relevant range volume discount may be achieved and outside such range, this may be forfeited which, will also reduce profit all things being equal.
Answer:
The advertising spend would reduce income taxes by $2.8 million
Explanation:
The advertising expense since it is allowable expense from profits made in the year would reduce income taxes next year by $2.8 million ($8 million *35%)
This means that because of its tax deductibility,it would make a business sense to incur the advertising cost of $8 million coupled with the fact the it has the potential to increase sales revenue over and above the current level of $280 million
