Answer:

YTM = 52%

Explanation:

F= face value of bond= 1000

Price of bond = 103.4

t= 4 years = 4 * 2 = 8 periods for semi annual coupon payments.

Coupon rate = 6.45% = 6.45%= .0645

n=number of years to maturity = 4 years

C= coupon payment = 1000 * coupon rate = 1000* 6.45% = 64.6

Formula: YTM = [C +  (F-P/n)]/(F+P)/2

                      =  [64.5  +  (1000-103.4)/4] / [(1000+103.4)/2]

                      = 288.6/551.7

                YTM      = 52%

Answer:

the yield to maturity is 5.49%

Explanation:

Consider the following calculations

Yield to Maturity = [Interest + (Price - Redeemable Value)/n] / (Price + Redeemable Value)/2 = [32.25 + (1034 - 1000)/8] / (1034 + 1000)/2 = 2.745% semi-annually

Annually = 2.745 x 2 = 5.49%.

A security business invoices its 30,800 customers on the first day of each month, with each of two computers doing half the job.
defon

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Total invoices = 30,800

Number of computers = 2

Rate at which invoices produces by first computer = 7,700 per hour

Rate at which invoices produces by second computer = 6,800 per hour

Number of invoices produces by each computer:

= Total invoices ÷ Number of computers

= 30,800 ÷ 2

= 15,400

Now, the time taken by the first computer to reach out its goal of 15,400:

= Number of invoices produces by First computer ÷ Rate of producing invoices

= 15,400 ÷ 7,700

= 2 hours

The total invoices produced by the second computer in 2 hours:

= Rate at which it produces invoices × 2 hours

= 6,800 per hour × 2 hours

= 13,600

So, the number of invoices still need to produce by the second computer is as follows:

= Total invoices produces by second computer - Total invoices produces in 2 hours

= 15,400 - 13,600

= 1,800

Lei Corporation has bonds on the market with 22.5 years to maturity, a YTM of 6.9 percent, a par value of $1,000, and a current
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

7.4%

Explanation:

Coupon rate=coupon payment/face value

The coupon payment can be ascertained using the pmt Excel function as stated below:

=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)

rate is the yield to maturity expressed in semiannual terms i.e 6.9%*6/12=3.45%

nper is the number of semiannual coupons the bond would pay over its 22.5 years i.e 22.5*2=45 payments

pv is the current price of $1057

fv is the face value of $1000

=pmt(3.45%,45,-1057,1000)=$37(semiannual coupon)

annual coupon=$37*2=$74

coupon rate=$74/$1000=7.4%

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

$18,400

Explanation:

Given that

Direct material = $10

Direct labor = $6

Variable overhead

= ($70,000 ÷ 10000 units)

= $7

Total  cost per unit of Finished Goods

= $23

So, the value of ending inventory under variable costing

= $23 × 800 units

= $18,400

Therefore we include Direct material per unit,  Direct labor per unit and  variable overhead per unit under variable costing.
