Answer:

$3,676,100

Explanation:

in base year dollars, the building costed $2,340,000 / 1.923 = $1,216,849

if today's cost index is 3.021, then it should cost $1,216,849 x 3.021 = $3,676,100 to build the same building.

The cost index is used to adjust inflation, since costs tend to increase a little every year, you need some type of index to compare costs over different periods of time.

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

JetBlue's equity at the end of the year was $1,888 million

Explanation:

Basing on accounting equation:

Total asset = Liabilities + Equity

At the beginning of a recent year, JetBlue's liabilities = Total asset - Equity = $7,071 - $1,757 = $5,314 million.

During the year, assets decreased by $1 million and liabilities decreased by $132 million.

At the end of the year:

JetBlue's assets = $7,071 - $1 = $7,070 million

JetBlue's liabilities = $5,314 - $132 = $5,182 million

JetBlue's equity = JetBlue's assets - JetBlue's liabilities = $7,070 - $5,182 = $1,888 million

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Minimum number of units to be issued = 45,791.4 units

Explanation:

The units of the bonds to be sold to raise the money equals to the price of the bonds divided by the sum to be raised

The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows expected from the bond discounted using the yield to maturity.

These cash flows include interest payment and redemption value

The price of the bond can be calculated as follows:

Step 1

PV of interest payment

Semi-annual coupon rate = 5.72/2 = 2.86 %

Semi-annual Interest payment =( 2.86 %×$1000)= $28.6

Semi annual yield = 6.85%/2 = 3.42%

PV of interest payment  

= A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

A- interest payment, r- yield -3.42%, n- no of periods- 2 × 22 = 44 periods

= 28.6× (1-(1.0342)^(-44)/0.0342)= 645.82

 

Step 2  

PV of redemption value (RV)

PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)

RV - redemption value- $1000, n- 7, r- 4.5%  

= 1,000 × (1+0.0342)^(-2×22)

= 1000 × 1.0342^(-44)= 227.7

Step 3

Price of bond = PV of interest payment + PV of RV

645.82 + 227.7= 873.525

Minimum number of units to be issued = $40 million/873.5= 45,791.4 units

 

Minimum number of units to be issued = 45,791.4 units
