Answer:
YTM = 2.84%
Explanation:
We know,
YTM = 
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 = 
or, YTM = 
or, YTM = $29.32 ÷ $1,034.08
or, YTM = 0.0284
Therefore, YTM = 2.84%
I think its all the above except for they might be trying to trick you because at sixteen a guardian or parent has to sign aswell.
Answer:
B) Land costs; air and rail systems
and
D) Labor cost; proximity to customers
Explanation:
Answer:
Projects Y and Z
b. Projects W and Z
c. Projects W and Y
Explanation:
CAPM equation : Expected return = Risk free rate + Beta x (Expected market return - Risk free rate)
W = 4% + [0.85 x (11% - 4%)] = 9.95%
X = 4% + (0.92 x 7%) = 10.44%
Y = 4% + (1.09 x 7%) = 11.63%
Z = 4% + (1.35 x 7%) = 13.45%
Projects Y and Z have an expected return greater than 11%
b. Projects W and Z should be accepted because its expected return is higher than the IRR
c. Project W would be incorrectly rejected because the expected rate of return is less than the overall cost of capital (i.e. 9.95 is less than 11). But its expected rate of return is greater than the IRR
Y would be incorrectly accepted because its expected rate of return is greater than the overall cost of capital but its expected rate of return is less than the IRR
The correct answer is Journalism
Explanation:
Journalism is one of the careers that most require the use of communicative and research skills. This is because journalists are expected to gather information about important local, national and global events, which requires the use of research skills, and later they are expected to communicate the information precisely, concisely, and confidently, which requires the use of communicative skills. In this context, the career Sam is preparing for is journalism because this is the only one from the options that would require Sam to research and then communicate information confidently.
