alina1380 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The comparison of psychological benefits to actual tangible costs depends on the individual in question. If the individual is constantly stressed to the point which the stress is affecting his/her health, work performance, mood, behavior around family, etc. then the tangible costs of going on vacation may be worth it. This is because a vacation would provide a moment of relaxation which would relieve all of that individual's stress and in doing so improve the individual's work performance, health, and overall quality of life. Therefore, the comparison between physical benefits to costs is always going to be a personal opinion.

A firm has estimated the following demand function for its product:
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

(i) Q=300

(ii) Elasticity of Demand=-3.33 (elastic)

(iii) Income Elasticity= 2.5 (normal good)

(iv) Advertising Elasticity: 1.5

Explanation:

The Demand function is given by

Q=100-5P+5I+15A

(1) To solve (i) we need to replace P = 200, I = 150, and A = 30 in the demand equation:

Q=100-5(200)+5(150)+15(30)=300

(2) To find the price elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with price) we use the point price elasticity formula

\eta_{Price}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta P}\frac{P}{Q}

From the above equation we get: \frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta P}=-5

Replacing in the elasticity formula

\eta_{Price}=-5\frac{200}{300}=|-3.33|>1

in absolute terms the elasticity is bigger than one so it is an elastic demand.

(3) For income elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with income), we proceed similarly as above. But the derivative is respect to income

\eta_{Income}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta I}\frac{I}{Q}=5\frac{150}{300}=2.5>1[/tex]

Which is bigger than one, denoting this is a normal good because it's bigger than one.

(4) Advertising elasticity (how much quantity demanded changes with expenditures in advertising), we proceed as before

\eta_{advertising}=\frac{\Delta Q}{\Delta A}\frac{A}{Q}=15\frac{30}{300}=1.5

A 30-year maturity bond has a 6.7% coupon rate, paid annually. It sells today for $881.17. A 20-year maturity bond has a 6.2% co
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Rate of return

30 year bond =  42%

20 year bond = 45%

Explanation:

First of all find current yield on 30 year maturity bond

We will use PV of annuity formula to calculate current YTM

Coupon Payment = 6.7% x 1000 = $67

$881.17 =( $67( 1- ( 1 + r )^-30 ) / r ) + ( 1000 / ( 1 + r )^30 )

r = 0.0773 = 7.73%

Current YTM is 7.73%

Now calculate the current yield for 20 years maturity bond

Coupon Payment = 6.2% x 1000 = $62

893.1 = ( ( $62 x ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-20 ) / r ) + ( 1000 / ( 1 + r )^20 )

r = 0.0723 = 7.23%

As given

5 years from now the YTM on 30 Year bond will be 7.70% and on 20 Year bond will be 7.20%.

Now calculate

Price of the 30 year bond Bond after 5 year at YTM of 7.7%

Price of the Bond = ( $67 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 0.077 )^-(30-5) ) / 0.077 )+( 1000 / ( 1 + 0.077 )^(30-5) ) = $890.46

Price of the 20 year bond Bond after 5 year at YTM of 7.2%

Price of the Bond = ((6.7%*1000)*(1-(1+0.072)^-15)/0.072)+(1000/(1+0.072)^15)

( $62 x ( 1 - ( 1 + 0.072 )^-(20-5) ) / 0.072 )+( 1000 / ( 1 + 0.072 )^(20-5) ) = $910.06

Increase in price of 30 year bond = $890.46 - $881.17 = $9.29

Increase in price of 30 year bond = $910.06 - $893.1 = $16.96

Future value of Coupon payment for 5 years

30 year bond = 67 x ( 1.072^5 -1 ) / 0.072 = $386.84

20 year bond = 62 x ( 1.072^5 -1 ) / 0.072 = $357.97

Total return = FV of Coupon payment + Price increase

30 year bond = $386.84 + $9.29 = $396.13

20 year bond = $357.97 + $16.96 = $374.93

Rate of return =  

30 year bond = $396.13 / $881.17 = 0.45 = 45%

20 year bond = $374.93 / $893.1 = 0.42 = 42%
