Solution :

Current yield of the Bond if the bonds are selling at a price of $ 9980.

Current yield = annual coupon amount / current selling price

Current yield $=\frac{10000 \times 5\%}{9980}$

                     $=\frac{500}{9980}$

                     = 0.0501

                     = 5.01 %

The current yield of a bond if the bonds are selling at $ 9350

Current yield = annual coupon amount / current selling price

Current yield $=\frac{10000 \times 5\%}{9350}$

                     $=\frac{500}{9350}$

                     = 0.0535

                     = 5.35 %

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Thus, difference in gross profit = $144 + $144 = $288

Profit as per FIFO is higher than profit as per LIFO

Explanation:

In the given case, as per both the methods computation shall be as follows:

Date                    Quantity                   Rate              Amount

Mar 1                     22 units                   $29                 $638

Jun 16                   31 units                    $30                 $930

Nov 28                 41 units                     $37                 $1,517

Total                     94 units                                           $3,085

Closing units = 18

That means sales = 94 - 18 = 76 units

Thus as per LIFO cost = 41 units @ $37 + 31 units @ $30 + 4 units @ $29

= $2,563

Closing stock = 18 units @ $29 = $522

As per FIFO cost = 22 units @ $29 + 31 units @ $30 + 23 units @ $37 = $2,419

Closing stock = 18 units @ $37 = $666

Thus, difference of closing stock = $666 - $522 = $144

Profit as per FIFO is higher by $144

Cost is higher in LIFO by $2,563 - $2,419 = $144

Thus, difference in gross profit = $144 + $144 = $288

aksik [14]

Answer:

13 Home games

Explanation:

A season pass cost for home games =$175

Individual ticket per game    =$14

For season pass to be less than  total home game tickets  

i.e $175 must be than ($14 X Homegames )  

i.e 175 = 14XHG

    HG=   175/14=12.5 Approx. 13 games

    Total cost of 13 games is ($13X14)=$182. {$175 is less that $182}

Ardim must attend 13 games.
