The Current yield on the bonds are calculated as :
Current yield = Annual coupon payments/ Current price
Here, we assume the face value of the bond to be $1000
Annual coupon payments are 10.6% of the face value or 0.106*1000 = 106
Current price = 108.1% of the face value = 1.081* 1000 = 1081
Current Yield = 106/1081
Current Yield = 0.098057 = 9.8057%
Current Yield = 9.81% (Rounded to two decimals)

Answer:
The break-even point in units will increase by 400 units.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Fixed costs= $60,000
Selling price= $4.00
Unitary variable cost= $1
First, we need to calculate the current break-even point for the current situation.
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 6,000 / (4 - 1)
Break-even point in units= 2,000 units
<u>Now, the unitary variable cost is $1.5</u>
<u></u>
Break-even point in units= 6,000 / (4 - 1.5)
Break-even point in units= 2,400 units
The break-even point in units will increase by 400 units.
