Suppose that the term structure is currently flat so that bonds of all maturities have yields to maturity of 10%. Currently a 5-

laila [671]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) PV=$1000

As price is equal to face value then the Coupon rate will be equal to its YTM, 10%.

Annual Coupons = 10% * 1000 = $100

b.) We have purchased the bond for $1000, so our investment is $1000

At the end of the year 1, we get a coupon of $100 and the selling price.

1st CASE - When monetary policy is tight.

New YTM = 12%

Time left to maturity (n) = 4 years

Coupon payment = $100

Price = Coupon payment X PVAF(YTM, n) + Face Value X PVF(YTM, n)

[USE TABLES or Financial calculator]

Price = 100 X PVAF(12%, 4) + 1000 X PVF(12%, 4) = 100 X 3.307 + 1000 X .636 = 303.7 + 636 = $939.7

If we sell the bond, Return = (Coupon Received + Selling price - Purchase price ) \div Purchase price

= (100 + 939.7 - 1000) \div 1000 = .0397 or 3.97%

Scenario 2 - When monetory policy is loose

New YTM = 8%

Time left to maturity (n) = 4 years

Coupon payment = $100

Therefore, Price = Coupon payment X PVAF(YTM, n) + Face Value X PVF(YTM, n)

Price = 100 X PVAF(8%, 4) + 1000 X PVF(8%, 4) = 100 X 3.312 + 1000 X .735 = 331.2 + 735 = $1066.2

If we sell the bond, Return = (Coupon Received + Selling price - Purchase price ) \div Purchase price

= (100 + 1066.2 - 1000) \div 1000 = .1662 or 16.62%

Using the example of your university, give examples of information systems for each of the three levels of scope (workgroup, ent

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Three levels of information systems at university include:

1. The students ICT unit (workgroup)

2. The departmental ICT units (enterprise)

3. The examination and records unit (inter enterprise)

Explanation:

The students ICT units and lab works together by communicating with one another in terms of file transfer, content chat systems and temporal record I keeping and processing.

The departmental information system operates at the higher level as an enterprise because at this stage the users at the work stations can no longer have full access to the platform because it is redefined to accommodate academic and non academic staff who are very useful in managing the data content, as well as keeping the security of these content intact against any form of security threats.

The examination and records unit on the final and higher level is the home server for all information systems security, backup and archive and the communication level regarded as the inter enterprise units. It is the final resort point when every other means of information and record keeping becomes threatened. Hence it is seen as the collation, record keeping and transfer point between one enterprise or department to the other.

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

The options for this question are the following:

A. Minimal

B. Superficial

C. Low-budget

D. Excessive

The correct answer is D. Excessive.

Explanation:

In this case, it is useful to consider that cost control is the procedure that allows companies to carry out the regulatory and protection processes against what the client expects to receive. Toyota is a well-known brand, and poor cost management can have an impact on the inflation of its costs and therefore the price of its cars rises considerably. Excessive costs negatively influence the companies' results, and therefore their correct management influences optimal results for the operation.
