Over time its value will -Select- approaching its maturity value at maturity. A par value bond is one that sells at par; the bond's coupon rate is equal to the going rate of interest. Normally, the coupon rate is set at the going market rate the day a bond is issued so it sells at par initially Quantitative Problem: Potter Industries has a bond issue outstanding with an annual coupon of 6% and a 10-year maturity.

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

It's necessary to remember that the value of fixed-rate bonds is inversely proportional to the level of interest rates. The value of the bond decreases as interest rates rise; moreover, the value of the bond rises as interest rates fall. A Bond with a lower coupon sells for less than its face value. When the going rate of interest is higher than the coupon rate, this condition arises. The value of the asset would increase over time. A higher coupon bond is one that sells for a higher price than its face value. When the going rate of interest is lower than the coupon rate, this condition arises. Its value will gradually decrease until it reaches its maturity value. A par value bond that sells at par, with a coupon rate equal to the current interest rate. The coupon is usually set at the going market rate on the day the bond is sold, so it sells at par at first.

Calculations:

C = Coupon Payments = $60 (Par Value x Coupon Rate)

n = number of years = 10

i = market rate or required yield = 7% = 0.007

K = number of coupon payments in 1 year = 1

P = value at maturity or par value = 1000

Present value of ordinary annuity formula:

Bond Price = C/k * [\frac{1 - \frac{1}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk}  } }{\frac{i}{k} } ] + \frac{P}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk}  }

Just plug in the values and you will get:

Bond Price = 60 x 7.02 + 508.35

Bond Price = 421.41 508.35

Bond Price = $929.76

Similarly,

Data:

C = Coupon Payments = $60 (Par Value x Coupon Rate)

n = number of years = 10

i = market rate or required yield = 7% = 0.007

K = number of coupon payments in 1 year = 2

P = value at maturity or par value = 1000

Present value of ordinary annuity formula:  

Bond Price = C/k * [\frac{1 - \frac{1}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk}  } }{\frac{i}{k} } ] + \frac{P}{(1 + \frac{i}{k})^{nk}  }

Just plug in the values and you will get:  

Bond Price = 30 x 14.21 + 502.57

Bond Price = 426.37 + 502.57

Bond Price = $928.94

elixir [45]

Answer: A $304

Explanation: LIFO means last in first out. It means it is the older inventory that is sold off first.

On November 1, total value of inventory = $20 × 5 =$100

On November 2, total value of inventory = $100 + ( $22 × 10) = $320

On November 6, total value of inventory = $320 +($25×6) = $470

On November 8, 8 units of inventory was sold. This would be taken from the older stock of inventory. These inventories are the those from November 1 and 2.

The remaining inventory after the sale = (7 × 22) + 150 = $304

Dimas [21]

Answer:

COGS= $598,020

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Kevin owns a retail store, and during the current year, he purchased $610,000 worth of inventory. Kevin's beginning inventory was $67,000, and his ending inventory is $77,200. During the year, Kevin withdrew $1,780 in inventory for his personal use.

We need to deduct the inventory used for personal use.

To calculate the cost of goods sold, we need to use the following formula:

COGS= beginning finished inventory + cost of goods purchased - ending finished inventory

COGS= 67,000 + 610,000 - 77,200 - 1,780

COGS= $598,020
