den301095 [7]

This statement is false. The notes receivable account should only include those notes which can still be collected. Notes that have not matured yet is still included in the notes receivable account because there is still the probability of collection. Dishonored notes should not anymore be included because there is no more probability of collection.

Find the convexity of a seven-year maturity, 6% coupon bond selling at a yield to maturity of 8%. The bond pays its coupons annu
Julli [10]

Answer:

convexity = 37.6306

Explanation:

given data:

maturity time = 7 years

yield to maturity (y) = 8% = 0.08

coupon bond = 6%

price= $89.59 ( gotten from the summation of pv(cf) from the table attached below )

t = time

convexity can be found using this formula

= \frac{1}{p(1+y)^2}  *  summation of (t +t^2) * pv(cf)

= \frac{1}{89.59*(1.08)^2} * 3932.310   = 37.6306

If the cost of a market basket of goods and services is $3,500 in 2012, the cost of the same market basket in 2015 is $5,600.

<h3>What is the market basket?</h3>

According to common definitions, a market basket is a selected mix of goods and services.

The market basket is commonly used to track the price performance of a specific market or segment, especially with regard to inflation.

An example of a market basket is the Consumer Price Index (CPI).  The CPI is an estimate of the average change of price paid for a specific basket of goods and services over time.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Date  Price Index

2011         95

2012      100

2013      129

2014       131

2015      160

Cost of market basket in 2012 = $3,500

Cost of market basket of goods and services in 2015 = $5,600 ($3,500/100 x 160)

Thus, if the cost of a market basket of goods and services is $3,500 in 2012, the cost of the same market basket in 2015 is $5,600.
