Answer:

1/3 bushel of rye

Explanation:

Given that the farmer produces 30 bushels of corn every year but using the entire field on producing 30 corn bushels would cost 10 rye bushels. Thus, the opportunity cost of producing one bushel of corn would be 1/3 bushel of rye(10/30). The slope of the farmer's PPF would be -1/3 and hence, the opportunity cost of the farmer can be calculated by considering the reciprocal of a bushel of corn's opportunity cost.

sattari [20]

Answer:

Interest receivable $600

Explanation:

The interest is just for 9 months and the cash for the interest has not been received yet, so debit Interest Receivable.

Interest is calculated using the formula:

interest=Principal x rate x time

$16,000 x 5% x 9/12 = $600

Interest Revenue would be credited for $600, but that is reported on the Income Statement, not the Balance Sheet.

A 10-year maturity, 8% coupon bond paying coupons semiannually is callable in five years at a call price of $950. The bond curre
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

6.76% annually

Explanation:

The rate of return bondholders receives on a callable bond until the call date is called Yield to call.

Yield to Call = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]

It is assumed that face value of Bond is $1,000

C = Coupon Payment = $1,000 x 3.8% = $38

F = Face value = $1,000

P = Call price = $950

n -= number of periods to call = 5 x 2 = 10 periods

Yield to Call = [ $38 + ( $1,000 - $950 ) / 10 ] / [ ( $1,000 + $950 ) / 2 ]

Yield to Call = [ $38 - 5 ] / $975 = $33 / $975 = 0.0338 = 3.38% semiannually

YTC = 3.38% semiannually = 6.76% annually
