Answer:

Explanation:

The coupon rate is defined as the interest rate paid on a bond by its issuer for the term of the security.

Hence,

Par Value = $800

Face Value = $1,000

N = 5 x 2 = 10

Since the interest is semi annual

i = 8% / 2 = 4%

CF = $15.34

Coupon = $30.68 per year or 3.068%

weqwewe [10]

Answer:  $57,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Beginning finished goods inventory in units = 0

Units produced = 7,000

Units sold = 5,100

Sales = $663,000

Materials cost = $140,000

Variable conversion cost used = $70,000

Fixed manufacturing cost = $490,000

Indirect operating costs (fixed) = $102,000

Total Variable cost of units produced = Materials cost + Variable conversion cost used

                                                               = $140,000 + $70,000

                                                               = $210,000

Variable\ cost\ per\ unit = \frac{Total\ variable\ cost}{units\ produced}

                                               =\frac{210,000}{7,000}

                                               = $30

Units in ending inventory = Units produced - Units sold

                                          = 7,000 - 5,100

                                          = 1,900

Value of Variable costing ending inventory = Units in ending inventory × Variable cost per unit

                                                                        = 1,900 × $30

                                                                        = $57,000

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Sunderland Company should increase debt investment by $2,685.00  

Explanation:

Sunderland Company needs to increase its debt investments account for Scott Company bonds with the difference between effective interest earned on July 1 2021 minus the actual coupon interest received as shown below:

The actual interest revenue earned = $1122375*12%

                                                           =$ 134,685.00  

The coupon interest received=$1,200,000*11%

                                                 =$ 132,000.00  

In a nutshell,the investment in bonds earned interest of $134,685 but only $132,000 was received in cash,hence the difference of $2,685 is added to the bonds investment figure($134,685-$132,000)

Assume that the economy has three types of people. 20% are fad followers, 75% are passive investors and 5% are informed traders.
mojhsa [17]

Answer: a. 11.5%

Explanation:

Fad followers are those investors who follow a trend when it emerges and as such their betas will be less than that of informed traders because the informed traders would have acted first.

Using the Capital Asset Pricing Model to calculate expected return.

Er = Rf + b( Rm - Rf)

Er = Expected return

Rf = Risk Free Rate

b = Beta

Rm = Market Return.

The Expected Return for the Informed Investors is,

= 4% + 1.4 ( 10% - 4%)

= 4% + 1.4 ( 6%)

= 12.4%

With the Fad followed expected to have a lower beta and therefore a lower expected return than the Informed Investors, the only suitable option is the 11.5%.
