Economic order quantity is the quantity at which business incur minimum cost. This is the level of order where the holding cost equals to the ordering cost of the business.

As per given data

Annual Demand = 5,000 cases

Ordering cost = $250

Carrying cost = $10

EOQ = $\sqrt{\frac{2 X S X D}{H} }$

EOQ = $\sqrt{\frac{2 X 250 X 5,000}{10} }$

EOQ = 500

Answer:

Inelastic

Explanation:

Elasticity of Demand = |%Change in Demand / %Change in Price|

%Change in Demand= |(40,000 - 50,000)/50,000| = 20%

%Change in Price = |(60 - 40)/40| = 50%

Elasticity of Demand = .2/.5 = .4 or 40%

.4 < 1 so Demand is Inelastic

f. Industrial equipment costs - Fixed cost

g. Interest on debt - Fixed cost

h. Postage and packaging costs - Variable cost

Explanation:

The cost which is affected by the production of units is known as variable cost. The cost which does not vary with the units produced is fixed cost. Fixed cost does not change from period to period irrespective of level of output and is usually same for a certain period. It is easy to budget for fixed costs instead of variable cost. Variable cost changes every period and is based on company's output.

A 10-year U.S. Treasury bond with a face value of $1,000 pays a coupon of 5.5% (2.75% of face value every six months). The repor

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

YTM 5.2% present value: $1,023.1644

YTM 1% present value: $1,427.2169

YTM 8% present value: $830.1209

YTM 8% present value: $515.7617

Explanation:

YTM we will calculate the present value of the coupon payment

andthe maturity at each YTM rate given:

The coupon payment present value will be the present value of an ordinary annuity

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

Coupon payment 28 (1,000 x 2.75%)

time 20 (10 years x 2 payment per year)

rate 0.026 (YTM over 2 as the payment are semiannually)

$27.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.026)^{-20} }{0.026} = PV\\$

PV $424.6800

The present value of the maturity will be the present value of a lump sum:

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 1,000.00

time 20.00

rate 0.026

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.026)^{20} } = PV$

PV 598.48

PV c $424.6800

PV m $598.4843

Total $1,023.1644

Now, we will calculate changin the YTM the concept and formulas are the same, just the rate is diffrent:

If YTM = 1%

$27.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.005)^{-20} }{0.005} = PV\\$

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.005)^{20} } = PV$

PV c $522.1540

PV m $905.0629

Total $1,427.2169

If YTM = 8%

$27.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-20} }{0.04} = PV\\$

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.04)^{20} } = PV$

PV c $373.7340

PV m $456.3869

Total $830.1209

If YTM = 15%

$27.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.075)^{-20} }{0.075} = PV\\$

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.075)^{20} } = PV$

PV c $280.3485

PV m $235.4131

Total $515.7617
