Answer:

1.22%

Explanation:

The modified duration of the bond gives an indication of change in price due to a 1% change in the yield to maturity,hence, the bond modified duration is computed using the formula below:

modified duration=Macaulay Duration/(1+YTM)

Macaulay Duration=4.2

YTM(initial)=3%

modified duration=4.2/(1+3%)= 4.08  

That for 1% change in yield to maturity price would change 4.08%

0.3% change in yield(3.3%-3%)= 4.08%*0.3%=1.22%

Interest rate = 10% = 10/100 = 0.1

Present value = ?

Computation of Present value:

Present\ value = PMT[\frac{1-(1+r)^{-n}}{r} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{1-(1+0.1)^{-12}}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{1-(1.1)^{-12}}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{1-0.318630818}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 3,200[\frac{0.681369182}{0.1} ]\\\\Present\ value = 21,803.6188

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

The producer is experiencing diminishing marginal product.

Explanation:

The law of diminishing return explains that every additional unit consumed will have less utility/return than the previous one. Same is the case with labor productivity. The first unit of labor will yield maximum return, every additional unit will result in lesser return/productivity than the previous unit. The will continue up to the point of maximum return. After that point adding additional resources will yield less total output.

Calculation to determine the investor's valuation of this stock
