1) Answer: When the required return is equal to the coupon rate, the bond value is equal to the par value,
2) if the required return is less than the coupon rate the bond will sell at a premium.
Explanation:
1) The reason for this that the required return is the market or investors required rate of return for a particular bond, when the required rate and coupon rate are equal it means that the investor is getting the return he wants in coupon payments, therefore the investor will be willing to buy the bond on par value, as he is getting his required return in the form of coupon payments.
2) When the required return is less than the coupon rate the investor is getting more in coupons than he required from the bond so the bonds price will be higher than par so that the return from the coupons become equal to the required rate of return. Thats why when a bonds required return is less than the coupon it sells on a premium.
Based on the amount it would cost to build the machine and the interest rate as well as the payoff, the following are true:
a. The machine will take a year to build which means the payoff will only start coming in next year.
First find the present value of the perpetuity:
= 70 / 5%
= $1,400
You then need to find the present value of the above in the current period:
= 1,400 / ( 1 + 5%)
= $1,333
NPV is:
= 1,333 - 1,000 cost
= $333
B. If the amount produced increases by 1%, you should use the Gordon Growth Model:
<em>= Next payoff / ( Interest - Growth)</em>
=70/ ( 5% - 1%)
= $1,750
Take this to current year:
= 1,750 / 1.05
= $1,667
NPV will be:
= 1,667 - 1,000
= $667

Explanation:
Persuasive message:
- Cordial, positive communication, with a focus on negotiation and openness to receiving proposals and feedbacks.
- Indirect approach, with a focus on explaining the advantages and benefits of the public to perform the expected action such as performing a specific task or concluding a sale.
Deliver bad news in business:
- Be transparent and communicate all the reasons that led the organization to face the bad news that is being communicated, maintaining a realistic but positive approach to maintain the sense of unity and overcoming of employees.
- Using an indirect approach so that bad news has less impact on the audience, for this the communication is made using soothing words and the news is in fact only given at the end of the message when explanations of the reasons for the fact are explained which increases the employees' sense of understanding.
