Answer:
$23,000
Explanation:
current annual sales = 49,000 packs
Selling price of course packs = $14 each
variable cost per pack = $12
Earnings = $75,000
Contribution:
= current annual sales × (Selling price of course packs - variable cost per pack)
= 49,000 packs × ($14 - $12)
= 49,000 packs × $2
= $98,000
Fixed costs of producing the course packs:
= Contribution - Earnings
= $98,000 - $75,000
= $23,000
Answer:
<u>D. Happenstance.</u>
Explanation:
The fact that German firms were nationalized has often been regarded as mere happenstance; meaning it just occurred based on the circumstances they were in immediately after World War II.
It thus encompasses several factors such as the cost of operations, changes in government, etc, not just one factor.
Answer:
Firms need finance to:
start up a business, eg pay for premises, new equipment and advertising.
run the business, eg having enough cash to pay staff wages and suppliers on time.
expand the business, eg having funds to pay for a new branch in a different city or country.
If the critical value is the only thing of interest, then this question is quite easy. Referencing a z table, you look up the percentage of interest: in this case, we must be 97.5% certain in order to accept the null hypothesis (significance level =2.5%. The number that corresponds to .9750 on the z table is 1.96. This is our critical value.
Answer:
answer 1. 9.24%
answer 2. 13.24%
Answer 3. 22.48%
Answer 4. $1,134.20
Explanation:
answer 1
Coupon amount = Face value * coupon rate
=1000*9%
=$90
current price of bond=$974
Current yield = Coupon amount/current price of bond
=90/974
=0.09240246407 or 9.24%
answer 2.
sale price after one year = 1103
purchase price or opening price = 974
Capital gains yield = (Sale price - Purchase price)/Purchase price
=(1103-974)/974
=0.1324435318 or 13.24%
Answer 3
One year coupon received = $90
Expected return of bond = Current yield + Capital gains yield
=0.09240246407+0.1324435318
=0.2248459959 or 22.48%
Another formula:
Expected return on bond = (Coupon received + sale price - purchase price)/Purchase price
(90+1103-974)/974
=0.2248459959
or 22.48%
Answer 4
Calculator inputs
I/Y (discount rate)= 8%
N (number of periods ) = 10
PMT (coupon amount) = 1000*10% =100
FV (face value) = 1000
press CPT and then -PV
Answer will be $1,134.20
