Answer:

$1,035.71

Explanation:

first we must determine the annual interest = face value x coupon rate = $1,000 x 7.25% = $72.50

now to determine the approximate market value = annual interest / market interest rate = $72.50 / 7% = $1,035.71

since the market rate is lower than the coupon rate, you can sell your bond at a premium

Suppose independent truckers operate in a perfectly competitive constant cost industry. If these firms are earning positive econ

Deffense [45]

Answer:

The price of trucking services would fall until equilibrium prices are reached. Only normal profit would be earned in the long run

Explanation:

A perfect competition is characterized by many buyers and sellers of homogenous goods and services. Market prices are set by the forces of demand and supply. There are no barriers to entry or exit of firms into the industry.

In the long run, firms earn zero economic profit. If in the short run firms are earning economic profit, in the long run firms would enter into the industry. This would drive economic profit to zero.

Also, if in the short run, firms are earning economic loss, in the long run, firms would exit the industry until economic profit falls to zero.

A proposed project has an initial cost of $38,000 and cash inflows of $12,300, $24,200, and $16,100 for years 1 through 3, respe

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

IRR is greater than required return by 17.38 - 16.8 % = 0.58 %

so project will accept

Explanation:

given data

initial cost = $38,000

cash inflows year 1 = $12,300

cash inflows year 2= $24,200

cash inflows year 3 = $16,100

rate of return = 16.8 %

solution

we consider here IRR is = x so

present value of inflows is equal to present value of outflows .............1

we can say that it as

initial cost = present value

3800 = $\frac{12300}{1*x} +\frac{24200}{(1*x)^2} +\frac{16100}{(1*x)^3}$

solve it we get

x = 17.38%

here IRR is greater than required return by 17.38 - 16.8 % = 0.58 %

so project will accept

Two car manufacturers, Saab and Volvo, have fixed costs of $1 billion and marginal costs of $10,000 per car. If Saab produces 50

igomit [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, write down Total fixed cost for each;

Fixed cost; Saab = $1,000,000,000

Fixed cost; Volvo = $1,000,000,000

Next find the Total Variable cost (TVC)

TVC = # of cars per year * marginal cost per car

Saab ; TVC = 50,000* $10,000 = $500,000,000

Volvo ; TVC = 200,000* $10,000 = $2,000,000,000

Average production cost = (Fixed cost + total variable cost) / # of cars per year

Saab = ($1,000,000,000 + $500,000,000)/ 50,000 = $30,000

Volvo = ($1,000,000,000 + $2,000,000,000)/ 200,000 = $15,000
