Answer:

The invoice price of the bond will be $100,127.88

Explanation:

Bonds are nothing but the debt instrument which a company uses to raise capital from the general public, these bonds can be of both short and long term period.

In the question it is given that bond has a coupon period of 182 days which means the bond is of short term period. Coupon rate of 7% means the bond gives the interest of 7% to its holder semiannually every year on January 15 and July 15.

It is given that the ask price for the bond on January 30 is 100.125 percent on par value of the bond which we are assuming to be $1000, which means the ask price is

$1000 X 100.125 = $100,125    ( ASK PRICE)

now we have to calculate the interest, remember the semiannually payment of interest has already been made on January 15 which means we have to find interest for only 15 days which will be taken out on par value

INTEREST = $1000 x 7% x 15 / 30

                 = $1000 x .07 x 1/ 2

                 = $35

INVOICE PRICE = INTEREST X \frac{TOTAL \: NUMBER \: OF \: DAYS}{COUPON \: PERIOD}   + Ask price

        =  $35 X 15 / 182

        = $2.884

Now adding this amount in to ask price

$100,125 + $2.884

= $100,127.88  ( INVOICE PRICE)

Suppose John has a budget of $82 that he spends on ice cream sundaes (Q1) and coffee (Q2). The price of ice cream sundaes recent
ANEK [815]

Answer:

The answer is 9 ice cream sundaes.

Explanation:

The answer to how many ice cream sundaes that John's budget of $82 is constrained to based on the following data

New Price of Ice cream sundaes (Q1) = $6

New Price of Coffee (Q2) = $4

can be calculated thus

since, 7 coffee was bought for $4 dollars each

7x4 = $28

The remaining funds is now

82-28 = $56

therefore,

$56/$6 = 9 Ice cream sundaes

The center of gravity method determines the best x and y coordinates for multiple faclities by finding a central location and th
babymother [125]

Answer:

The answer is True.

Explanation:

The center of gravity method is a concept under <em>Operations Management</em> as it relates to facilities distribution such as warehouses or fulfillment centers.

Center of Gravity Strategy/Method is defined as a concept that seeks to calculate geographic coordinates for a potential single new facility that will minimize costs. Under this approach the main factors considered are:

  • Cost of Shipping
  • Markets
  • Volume of goods shipped

Operations managers prefer to use this approach in siting the location of their facilities because:

  • It minimizes cost.
  • It is simple to compute
  • It takes in to consideration existing facilities

How to use the Center of Gravity Method

Step 1:

  • Place existing facility(ies) such warehouse, fulfillment center, and distribution center locations in a coordinate grid.
  • situate the grid on an ordinary map.
  • The distances between the facilities must be noted.

Step 2:

Then, using the equations below,

   Fx= ∑ dix Vi/ ∑ Vi

   Fy= ∑ diy Vi/ ∑ Vi

Proceed to calculate the X and Y coordinates using these equations where Fx is the X (horizontal axis) coordinate for the new facility, and

Fy is the Y (vertical axis) coordinate for the new facility, dix is the X coordinate of the current location, diy is the Y coordinate of the existing location, and Vi is the volume of goods moved to or from the <em>i</em>th location.

Step 3:

After you have obtained the X and Y coordinates place that location on the map.

This approach allows for point of departure – or, literally, a starting point of where (from the perspective of longitude and latitude) you options are for where to grow your fulfillment or logistics network.

Cheers!

An activity's normal time and cost are 8 and $100, respectively. its estimated crash time and cost are 6 and $160, respectively.
Sphinxa [80]
An activity's normal time and cost are = 8 and $100 respectively
estimated crash time and cost are = 6 and $160 respectively
Activity's crash cost per unit time = ?
crash cost per unit time = cost slope and,
cost slope = rise/run = (crash cost - normal cost) / (normal time - crash time) 
cost slope = (160 - 100) / (8 - 6) = 60 / 2 = $30
so, crash cost per unit time is $30.

Joel borrows his brother's boat for the month of June, as he has done for the past few years. In the past, Joel has fixed anythi
baherus [9]

Answer:

The correct answer is the option D: Yes, if the old steering wheel would have damaged the boat.

Explanation:

To begin with, in the case presented Joel's brother seems to be quite pleasent with the fact that Joel is repairing the boat once year so that means that he does not need to take the boat in for regular maintenance so therefore that he saves money due to the work done by Joel. That is the reason why if the steering wheel would have damaged the boat if it was not replaced then the cost that Joel's brother would have paid in order to repair all the damaged done by the wheel would have been much greater than just the cost of the steering wheel itself. Moreover, it is quite understood that they both had a tacit agreement that has been there for many years so therefore that Joel's brother must pay him otherwise, plus if the new wheel improves the value of the boat as well.
