Answer: PED = -1.665

The price demand elasticity is relatively elastic because PED is greater than 1..(ignore the minus sign)

Explanation:

Using the formula PED = % change in quantity/ % change in price

PED = ((Q1 - Q0)/(Q1 + Q0))/((P1 -P0)/(P1+P0))...EQU 1 where Q1 = 50 is quantity of product at Price P1 =10 and Q0 = 25 is quantity of product at Price P0 = 15 and PED is price of elasticity

Substituting figures into equ1

PED = ((50 - 25)/(50+25)) /((10 -15)/(10+15))

PED = -1.665

Assume that demand for bottled water is relatively price elastic. An increase in supply of bottled water will result in which of
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

3 then 1

Explanation:

Supply is said to be increased when the quantity supplied expands but the price and quantity demanded remains unchanged. As quantity supplied has increased whereas the quantity demanded is what it was before this change, there is first a surplus of bottled water in the market. This surplus will have a downward pressure on price, reducing the quantity supplied a bit and, as the law of demand suggests ,the quantity demanded will increase. Given that the demand is relatively price elastic, the change in quantity demanded will be greater than the change in price. Therefore the revenue will increase.

A corporation has 10,000 bonds outstanding with a 6% annual coupon rate, 8 years to maturity, a $1,000 face value, and a $1,100

Answer:

Year   Cashflow    [email protected]%      PV           [email protected]%     PV

               $                                 $                                  $

  0        (1,100)           1           (1,100)           1             (1,100)

1-8        47.4             5.3349  252.87      7.0197      332.73

 8       1,000             0.4665    465.5      0.7894       789.4

                                  NPV      (381.63)              NPV 22.13                    

Kd = LR     + NPV1/NPV1+NPV2    x (HR – LR)

Kd = 3       + 22.13/22.13 + 381.63   x (10 – 3)

Kd =  3       + 22.13/403.76 x 7

Kd = 3        + 0.38

Kd = 3.38%  

Explanation:

Cost of debt is calculated based on internal rate of return formula. In year 0, we will consider the current market price of the bond as cashflow. In year 1 to 8, we will consider the after-tax coupon as the cashflow. The after-tax coupon is calculated as R(1 - T).  R is 6% x $1,000 = $60 and tax is 21%. Thus, we have $60(1  - 0.21) = $47.4. then we will discount the cashflows for  8 years so as to obtain the internal rate of return. The internal rate of return represents cost of debt.

From the beginning of 2000 until its peak in 2012, Apple’s stock price rose from $27.97 to $702.10, an increase of 25 times. Yet
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Steve Jobs coming back, Innovations, and Tim Cook taking over as COO

Explanation:

The fluctuations in stock prices of a company are due to improved performance of the company in meeting it's objectives and perception that the business will do better in the future.

In the given scenario there was an initial increase in Apple’s stock price from $27.97 to $702.10, an increase of 25 times.

This can be attributed to the return of Steve Jobs as the CEO of Apple. There was a confidence boost by his coming back. Also there were various innovations like: iPhone, iMac, iPod, and iTunes. These improved the performance and by extension share price of Apple.

However when Tim Cook took over as COO he reduced production by half resulting in stock price decrease by 37% from its peak in September 2012 until the end of March 2013, from $702.10 to $442.66.
