Answer:

13.33%

Explanation:

The computation of the equivalent taxable yield is shown below:

Data provided in the question

Coupon rate = 8%

Combined tax bracket = 40%

So, the equivalent taxable yield by using the above information is

= (Coupon rate) ÷ (1 - tax rate)

= 8% ÷ 1 - 0.40

= 8% ÷ 0.60

= 13.33%

Basically we divide the coupon rate by the percentage after considering the tax rate

Schach [20]

Answer:

$1,061.28

Explanation:

We need to calculate the present value of the bond using the minimum effective rate of 7.1225%

First we calcualte the present value of an annuity of $80 for 10 years

C * \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

80 * \frac{1-(1+7.1225%)^{-10} }{7.1225%} = PV\\

PV = $558.72

Then we calculate the $1,000 in 10 years present value

\frac{Principal}{(1 + rate)^{time}}= PV

\frac{1,000}{(1 + 7.1225%)^{10} } = PV

PV =  $502.57

Then we add both values

$502.57 + $558.72 = $1,061.28

This will be the present value AKA market price which yields the minimun rate of 7.1225%

You can now sell 70 cars per month at $35,000 per car, and demand is increasing at a rate of 4 cars per month each month. What i
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

the fastest we could drop your price before your monthly revenue starts to drop is $2,000

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Cars sold per month, Q =  70 cars

Price of each car, P = $35,000

Rate of increase in demand, \frac{dQ}{dt} = 4 cars per month

Now,

Revenue, R = Price(P) × Quantity (Q)

Thus,

When monthly revenue starts to drop i.e \frac{dR}{dt} < 0

⇒ \frac{dR}{dt} = \frac{d(PQ)}{dt} < 0

or

⇒ P\frac{dP}{dt}+Q\frac{dQ}{dt} < 0

or

⇒ 70\times\frac{dP}{dt}+35,000\times4 < 0

or

⇒ 70\times\frac{dP}{dt} < - 140,000

or

\frac{dP}{dt} < - 2,000

Hence,

the fastest we could drop your price before your monthly revenue starts to drop is $2,000

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

$171,619.20

Explanation:

The computation of the budgeted accounts payable balance at the end of November is shown below:

= Budgeted cost of raw materials purchases in November × following month percentage

= $286,032 × 60%

= $171,619.20

As 40% is paid in the month of purchase whereas 60% is paid to the following month. So, we recognized 60%, not 40%
