Answer:

The answer is 8.90%

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

The bond face value =$1000

Annual coupon rate =10%

Maturity rate =12 years

Price sold at =1080

Now we find the component cost of debt for use

Thus

The debt (cost) = Yield to maturity

So

YTM = Annual interest payment + [(Face value - Present price / Years to maturity] / [0.6(Price of bond) + 0.4 (principal payment)]

= $100 + [($1000 - $1080) / 12] / [0.6 * $1080 + 0.4 * $1000]

= $100 - 6.67 / $1048

= $93.33 / $1048

= 0.0890 or 8.90%

Therefore the debt for use is 8.90%

Licemer1 [7]

Explanation:

Market pull can be defined as a strategy in which the organization develops a new product or service for customers to look for the company, which means bringing customers closer and gaining the advantage of loyalty and increasing the customer base.

The first example shows the market pull by developing a consumer need such as high-speed internet to replace a slower internet, that is, the company attracted consumers from a need that was not met in the market.

The advantages of this strategy are consumer loyalty , and the disadvantages may be the difficulty in designing a new product that meets the real needs of consumers and is well accepted in the market.

The "technology push" is the strategy used when companies are already recognized in the market enough to influence the demand for their products and services, and then launch new technological products with the expectation of creating the need in consumers from the value that the company have on the market.

The advantages of this strategy can be the increase in the brand value in the market, and the disadvantages can be spent on technological developments that may not be well accepted by consumers.

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

$50,000

Explanation:

Since the partnership is valued at $300,000, then each partner's stake = $300,000 / 3 = $100,000

that means that each partner must purchase 2 policies (one for each of the other partners) that covers his/her stake = $100,000 / 2 policies = $50,000 per policy

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Philip's country has followed the process of Dollarization.

Explanation:

Dollarization is the process of adopting a foreign currency instead of it own domestic currency. It is not necessary to adopt United States Dollar as your substituting currency in Dollarization. Any stable currency can be used instead of the domestic currency. Countries move towards the Dollarization when they have a weak domestic currency and they are in a threat of low buying power, and unstable economic environment. All these factors lead a country to go for substituting its domestic currency and choose a stable currency to control inflation and other unstable economic activities of the country. In this example, the value of currency of John's country depreciated over time and is expected to depreciate more in the coming months, so they went towards the process of Dollarization.
