Answer:
TRUE
Explanation:
The CEO
's belief that he has placed his firm in a slow-cycle industry where <u>concerns about protecting unique competencies dominate concerns about market share,</u> is true
Basically, the CEO operates in a niche market as is reported in the scenario
<u>Niche marketing refers to competing within a narrowly defined market segment with a specialized offering.</u>

Answer: The current price of the bond is $258.74
Explanation:
The present value of the bond is its Current Price
We would use the following formua to calculate the Current Price of the bond,
PV =
+ A ![[\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+r)^{N} } }{r} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cfrac%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%281%2Br%29%5E%7BN%7D%20%7D%20%7D%7Br%7D%20%5D)
Where,
FV = Face value = $1,000
A = Coupon payment paid semi annually = (8% x 1000) / 2 = $40
r = Yield to Maturity = 16%
N = Number of periods = 15 years x 2 = 30 semi-annual periods
PV =
+ 40 ![[\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+0.16)^{30} } }{0.16} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cfrac%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%281%2B0.16%29%5E%7B30%7D%20%7D%20%7D%7B0.16%7D%20%5D)
PV = 258.73618
