a coupon bond that pays seminanual interest is reported in the wall street journal as having an ask price of 120% of it 1000 par value if the last interest payment was made 3 months ago and the coupon rate is 4% the invoice price of the bond will be
Answer:Invoice on price of bond =$1209.89
Explanation:
Annual coupon amount = 1000 x 4%= 40
Payments made semi annually, therefore number of days before every payment = 365/ 2 = 182.5 = 182 days
Last interest payment = 3 months ago, taking each ,month = 30 days , we have 30 x 3 = 90 days
Flat price = par value x asking price percent = 1000 x 120%= $1200
Accrued interest = (Annual coupon interest /2)x ( days since last payment/ days separating coupon payments
= (40/2) x (90/182) = 20 x 0.4945= $9.890
Invoice on price of bond = flat price + accrued interest
$1200 +$9.890
=$1209.89
A 20 year property lease classified as an operting lease provides a 10% increase in annual payments every 5 years. In the 6th year compared to the 5th year the lease will cause the following expenses to increase
rent interest
a no yes
b yes no
c yes yes
d no no
d. no no
Answer: d. no no
Explanation:
When using operating leases, the rent is paid on a straight line basis meaning that rent will not increase and uses an even figure over the entire term of the lease.
The even figure already accounts for the increase in rent and incorporates it so there is no need to increase the rent figure in the 6th year.
Interest payment is not part of an Operating lease as this kind of lease involves on rental payments.

Assume a project has normal cash flows. All else equal, which of the following statements is CORRECT?
A. A project's IRR increases as the WACC declines.
B. A project's NPV increases as the WACC declines.
C. A project's MIRR is unaffected by changes in the WACC.
D. A project's regular payback increases as the WACC declines.
E. A project's discounted payback increases as the WACC declines
Answer: B. A project's NPV increases as the WACC declines.
Explanation:
NPV is calculated by discounting the future cashflows at the Weighted Average Cost of Capital. This means that if the WACC is lower, the NPV will be higher because cash flow will not be discounted as much and if the WACC keeps going lower, the NPV keeps rising.
For instance, assume a company invested $10,000 and will get cash inflows of $10,000 for 2 years. What is the NPV at 10% and 15%.
NPV at 10% WACC = -10,000 + 10,000/1.1 + 10,000/1.1²
= -10,000 + 9.090.90 + 8,264.46
= $7,355.36
NPV at 15% WACC = -10,000 + 10,000/1.15 + 10,000/1.15²
= -10,000 + 8,695.65 + 7,561.44
= $6,257.09
Notice how NPV dropped when WACC increased.

National Geographic is replacing an old printing press with a new one. The old press is being sold for $350,000 and it has a net book value of $75,000. Assume that National Geographic is in the 40% income tax bracket. How much will National Geographic net from the sale?
Answer:
$240,000
Explanation:
National geographic is replacing an old printing machine with a new one
The old printing machine is sold at the price of $350,000
It has a net book value of $75,000
The income tax is 40%
= 40/100
=0.4
The first step is to calculate the taxable value
= $350,000-$75,000
= $275,000
Income tax= taxable value×tax rate
= $275,000×0.4
= $110,000
Therefore, the net from sales can be calculated as follows
= $350,000-$110,000
= $240,000
Hence the net from sale of National Geographic is $240,000
Which of the following is the most important determinant of productivity in the U.S.?
a. human capital
b. physical capital
c. technology
d. none of the above
Answer:
c. technology
Explanation:
The US has been known for being the land of opportunity, and opportunity is generally the result of technology. The US is number one for entrepreneurship and that results in higher economic growth and higher productivity. When you look at the largest companies in the US (and the world), most of them were formed by entrepreneurs that were able to develop new technologies. E.g. Steve Jobs (Syrian immigrant), Elon Musk (South African), Serguei Brin (Russian) and Jeff Bezos (has a Cuban father). If we look a little farther away (grandparents), virtually all the rest of high tech firms were formed by descendants of immigrants that developed new technologies, products and services.

Your great aunt left you an inheritance in the form of a trust. The trust agreement states that you are to receive $2,400 on the first day of each year, starting immediately and continuing for 20 years. What is the value of this inheritance today if the applicable discount rate is 6.75 percent
Answer:
The value of this inheritance today is $30,541.12.
Explanation:
Since the $2,400 is to be received the first day of each year, this is shows that this an annuity due and the relevant formula to use is the formula for calculating the present value (PV) of an annuity due given as follows:
PV = P * [{1 - [1 / (1 + r)]^n} / r] * (1 + r) .................................. (1)
Where ;
PV = Present value or the value of this inheritance today =?
P = Annual receipt = $2,400
r = discount rate = 6.75%, or 0.0675
n = number of years = 20
Substituting the values into equation (1) above, we have:
PV = $2,400 * [{1 - [1 / (1 + 0.0675)]^25} / 0.0675] * (1 + 0.0675)
PV = $2,400 * 11.9208107635642 * 1.0675
PV = $30,541.12
Therefore, the value of this inheritance today is $30,541.12.
How much must be deposited today into the following account in order to have 35000
in 6 years for a down payment on a house? Assume no additional deposits are made.
An account with monthly compounding and an APR of 8%
Answer:
$21,691.43
Explanation:
We are to determine the present value of 35,000
the formula for determining present value is :
PV = FV (1 + r)^-nm
FV = Future value
P = Present value
R = interest rate = 8%/ 12
N = number of years
m = number of compounding = 12
35,000( 1 + 0.00667)^-72 = $21,691.43
When aggregate demand is low enough to drive unemployment above the natural rate:_____.
a. there is downward pressure on the price level and the government may want to conduct expansionary fiscal policy.
b. there is downward pressure on the price level and the government may want to conduct contractionary fiscal policy.
c. there is upward pressure on the price level and the government may want to conduct contractionary fiscal policy.
d. the economy is entering into an expansion and the government may want to conduct contractionary fiscal policy.
e. there is upward pressure on the price level and the government may want to conduct expansionary fiscal policy.
Answer: a. there is downward pressure on the price level and the government may want to conduct expansionary fiscal policy.
Explanation:
With such a low aggregate demand curve, the equilibrium price which is where the Aggregate demand curve intersects the Aggregate Supply curve will be lower which will led to a downward pressure on the price level.
With such low aggregate demand and prices which will lead to increased unemployment over the natural rate, the Government would need to stimulate the Economy and can do this by embarking on an expansionary fiscal policy.
With this they can increase spending or reduce taxes which will increase income levels thereby increasing demand and thus lead to more companies opening up and hiring more people.

If you were an advisor at a global summit on alternative energy, which source of energy would you recommend countries invest more money in
Answer:
If I were an advisor at the alternative energy summit I would support investing in solar energy.
Explanation:
The reasons are various:
- The cost of implementation is much cheaper than that of wind turbines or hydrogenerators, which is why it is more economically profitable.
- It can be implemented in any area of the world or in any place where you find sunlight (such as areas of the Middle East), regardless of the hours of daily sunlight (The sun is an inexhaustible source of energy).
- It is a clean energy, since it produces energy without expense or damage to nature.
- In addition to this, the useful life of photovoltaic panels is 20 years, a fairly long time with respect to the amount of energy generated.
Answer:
If I was an advisor, I would choose to support Solar energy. The cost of implementing such a thing is cheaper than the cost of implementing wind turbines or hydrogenerators. With a lower cost, it makes it more economically profitable. It can be installed in any place where you can find sunlight. These can be used regardless of how many hours of sunlight you have daily.
It is a clean energy source due to the fact that it produces energy without expense or damage to nature. The usual lifespan of photovoltaic panels is 20 years. Which is a fairly long time considering how much energy can be generated from the panels.
Why choose solar energy? Solar energy is one of the most abundant sources of energy due to the fact that it relies on the sun in order to produce energy. Solar energy is cheaper than most fossil fuels, the cheapest option for fossil fuels is natural gas which costs between 4.2 and 7.8 cents per kWh while solar energy costs 4.3 cents per kWh. It is also quicker to install the solar panels than it is to set up any of the other sources of energy. Considering that it is also a clean source of renewable energy that certainly helps the cause and lowers the effects of global warming.
