Answer:

YTM = 2.84%

Explanation:

We know,

YTM = \frac{I + \frac{M - V_{0}}{n} }{\frac{2M + V_{0} }{3}}

Here,

I = Coupon payment = It is calculated by multiplying the coupon interest rate by the par value of the bond.

M = Bond's par value.

Vo = Bond's current market price.

n = Number of years or periods.

Given,

n = 18

I = Semiannual coupon bonds rate = $1,000*7%*(1/2) = $70 ÷ 2 = $35

M = Par value of a bond = $1,000

Vo = Market value of the bond = $1,102.50

Therefore,

YTM = \frac{35 + \frac{1,000 - 1,102.25}{18} }{\frac{2*1,000 + 1,102.25}{3}}

or, YTM = \frac{35 - 5.68}{\frac{3,102.25}{3}}

or, YTM = $29.32 ÷ $1,034.08

or, YTM = 0.0284

Therefore, YTM = 2.84%

A particular product line is most likely to be dropped when: Group of answer choices its total fixed costs are more than its con
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

A particular product line is most likely to be dropped when:

  • its total fixed costs are more than its contribution margin
  • its variable costs are more than its fixed costs
  • its unavoidable fixed costs are more than its contribution margin.

Explanation:

The aim of every producer is to maximize profit and to make this possible, the cost of producing a particular product should fall below the contribution margin.

In the case that the gross profit is always negative due to high cost of production, further production should be discouraged.

The decision to drop a particular product line is usually reached when:

  • Its total fixed costs are more than its contribution margin: Here, the company will run at a loss. It is sustainable to continue production..
  • Its variable costs are more than its fixed costs: This is also an unfavorable situation that does not sustain mass production. Therefore, further production should discontinue.
  • its unavoidable fixed costs are more than its contribution margin: At this rate, profit cannot be maximized. It is a lose-lose situation for the company.

swenson Saws produces bows, frame, dovetail, and tenon saws used by craft furniture makers. During an 8-hour shift, a saw is pro
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Given: Total shift time = 8 hours = 8 * 60 = 480 minutes

time required for production of one saw = 6 minutes

Demand for Bow saw = Demand for frame saw = Demand for dovetail saw = 1/2 * Demand of Tenon saw

a) Mixed model schedule:

Mixed model schedule

Product no. per batch

Bow Saw 1

Frame Saw 1

Dovetail Saw 1

Tenon Saw 2

Total 5

Therefore 2 Tenon Saw, and each bow, frame, and dovetail saws will be produced before the cycle is repeated.

b) 2 Tenon Saw, 1 bow, 1 frame, and 1 dovetail saws will be produced under production sequence for one unit production.

The length of cycle will be 5*6=30 minutes i.e. the cycle will repeat once in 30 minutes for 8 hours means totally it will repeat 16 times during one shift.

c) Number of saws Swenson produce in one shift = Number of Bow saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Frame saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Dovetail saw Swenson produce in one shift + Number of Tenon saw Swenson produce in one shift
