Assume Oliver wants to earn a return of 10.50% and is offered the opportunity to purchase a $1,000 par value bond that pays a 8.

75% coupon rate (distributed semiannually) with three years remaining to maturity. The following formula can be used to compute the bond’s intrinsic value:
Intrinsic ValueIntrinsic Value = A/(1+C)^1+A/(1+C)^2+A/(1+C)^3+A/(1+C)^4+A/(1+C)^5+A/(1+C)^6+B/(1+C)^6

Based on this equation and the data, it is _______ (unreasonable/reasonable) to expect that Oliver’s potential bond investment is currently exhibiting an intrinsic value less than $1,000.
Now, consider the situation in which Oliver wants to earn a return of 11.75%, but the bond being considered for purchase offers a coupon rate of 8.75%. Again, assume that the bond pays semiannual interest payments and has three years to maturity. If you round the bond’s intrinsic value to the nearest whole dollar, then its intrinsic value of _______ (rounded to the nearest whole dollar) is _______ (equal to/greater than/less than) its par value, so that the bond is ______ (trading at premium/par/discount).

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

Aggregate demand shifts to the right.

Explanation:

Tax rebate means that the people have a tax benefit that increases their disposable income.

When there is additional income available for people to spend, there is an increased demand that shifts to the right the aggregate demand curve.

Hope that helps.

klasskru [66]

Answer:  Investment income = Earning during 2018 × outstanding common shares

= $80,000 × 35%

Dividend declaration  = Dividend × outstanding common shares

<em>Ramsey’s share of Vapor’s income for 2018 =  Investment income - Dividend declaration</em>

<em>= $28,000 - $14,000</em>

Elena L [17]

Answer:

Work in Process Inventory account at the end of September is $1,950

Explanation:

As all jobs at the beginning of september in the balance of Work in progress were finished, it's costs are now in Finished Goods Inventory. So are too, the two jobs started and finished during September. The Works in Process account records materials, labor and structure costs of order not finished yet at the end of the month.

6. Harris Corporation is an all-equity firm with 100 million shares outstanding. Harris has $250 million in cash and expects fut
maria [59]

Answer:

Using the discount cash flow model to value the company, we can say that the company is worth $85 million / 12% = $708.33 million

Each stock should be worth approximately $708.33 million / 100 million = $7.0833 per stock

If the company uses the cash to finance new projects, then future cash flows should be approximately $97.75 million, and the company's value = $97.75 million / 12% = $814.583 million. This represents a 15% increase in value. The stock price should also increase by 15% to $8.1458 per stock.

If the company instead decides to repurchase stocks using all the cash, then it could repurchase 35.29 million stocks. Since we are assuming that the company's future cash flows wouldn't be affected by this decision, then the company's total value will still be $708.33 million, but each stock would be worth much more = $708.33 / 64.71 million stocks = $10.95. This represents a 34.36% increase with respect to the other alternative of investing the cash.

The issue here, is that this situation is not very realistic. It is not normal for a company to use all of its cash to repurchase stocks since it would result in a huge increase in stock prices (stock prices are set by supply and demand). Also, this would also result in a sharp increase in the cost of equity due to higher risks.
