Answer:

The question is missing the par value of the Bond, tried searching online but i could not find it.

A Bond`s yield to maturity is the same as the Internal Rate of Return. It is the interest rate that will make the present value of cash flows equal to the price or initial investment. To calculate the Bond`s Yield to Maturity (YTM), we must have the Bond`s Par Value (this is missing), Year to Mature, Coupon Payment, Market Price.

Using a financial calculator, you enter the parameters as follows to calculate the YTM,

PV = $985.63

PMT = 5.825 % of par value

Period per year = 2

N = 3

FV = missing

YTM = ?

With just those steps and finally pressing I/YR button on your financial calculator you will get the yield to maturity that Ruth Lewis can  expect to earn.

Explanation:

b. Sunk cost: a cost incurred in the past that cannot be changed as a result of future actions. Sunk cost can be defined as a cost or an amount of money that has been spent on something in the past and as such cannot be recovered.

c. Relevant information: costs and revenue that are expected to vary, depending on the course of action decided on. Hence, relevant cost are relevant for decision-making purposes but not sunk costs.

d. Opportunity cost: the benefit foregone by not pursuing an alternative course of action. Opportunity cost also known as the alternative forgone, can be defined as the value, profit or benefits given up by an individual or organization in order to choose or acquire something deemed significant at the time.

e. Joint products: products made from common raw materials and shared production processes.

f. Out-of-pocket cost: a cost yet to be incurred that will require future payment and may vary among alternative courses of action.

g. Split-off point: the point at which manufacturing costs are split equally between ending inventory and cost of goods sold. Thus, it give rise to joint products that emerge from the same raw materials and a shared manufacturing process.
