Answer:
Bond X $1,053.02
Bond Y $948.76
Explanation:
The bond price is the present value of all future cash flows(all semiannual coupons and face value) discounted at the semiannual yield to maturity since coupons are expected semiannually.
Using a financial calculator bearing in mind that the calculator would be set to its default end mode before making the following inputs:
Bond X:
N=26(semiannual coupons in 13 years=13*2=26)
PMT=34(seminnual coupon=$1000*6.8%/2=$34)
I/Y=3.10(semiannual yield to maturity=6.2%/=3.10%)
FV=1000(the face value is $1000)
CPT
PV=$1,053.02
Bond Y:
N=26(semiannual coupons in 13 years=13*2=26)
PMT=31(seminnual coupon=$1000*6.2%/2=$31)
I/Y=3.40(semiannual yield to maturity=6.8%/=3.40%)
FV=1000(the face value is $1000)

PV=$948.76
Due to erratic sales of its sole product—a high-capacity battery for laptop computers—PEM, Inc., has been experiencing financial difficulty for some time. The company’s contribution format income statement for the most recent month is given below: Sales (12,800 units × $20 per unit) $ 256,000 Variable expenses 153,600 Contribution margin 102,400 Fixed expenses 114,400 Net operating loss $ (12,000 ) Required: 1. Compute the company’s CM ratio and its break-even point in unit sales and dollar sales. 2. The president believes that a $6,700 increase in the monthly advertising budget, combined with an intensified effort by the sales staff, will result in an $84,000 increase in monthly sales. If the president is right, what will be the increase (decrease) in the company’s monthly net operating income?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Sales (12,800 units × $20 per unit) $256,000
Variable expenses 153,600 (12)
Contribution margin 102,400
Fixed expenses 114,400 Net operating loss $ (12,000 )
First, we need to calculate the contribution margin ratio and the break-even point in units and dollars:
Contribution margin ratio= unitary CM / Selling price
Contribution margin ratio= total CM / Sales
Contribution margin ratio= 102,400 / 256,000
Contribution margin ratio= 0.4
Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit
Break-even point in units= 114,400 / (20 - 12)
Break-even point in units= 14,300
Break-even point (dollars)= fixed costs/ contribution margin ratio
Break-even point (dollars)= 114,400 / 0.4
Break-even point (dollars)= $286,000
Now, we need to calculate the effect on the income of increasing the advertising budget:
Effect on income= increase in contribution margin - increase in fixed costs
Effect on income= 84,000*0.4 - 6,700
Effect on income= $26,900 increase

Suppose Skyler invests in an annuity that pays 3.2% annual interest, compounded monthly. If she contributes $155 every month for 10 years, how much interest would she earn during that time
Answer: $3,286.47
Explanation:
Find the future value of the annuity after 10 years.
Number of periods = 10 * 12 months = 120 months
Interest = 3.2% / 12 = 3.2/12%
Future value of annuity = Annuity * ( (1 + rate)^ number of periods- 1) / rate
= 155 * ( ( 1 + 3.2%/12) ¹²⁰- 1) / 3.2%/12
= $21,886.47
The find the amount that the money would have come to without being invested:
= 155 * 120 months
= $18,600
Interest is:
= 21,886.47 - 18,600
= $3,286.47

Last year Ace charged $1,469,867 Depreciation on the Income Statement of Andrews. If early this year Ace purchased a new depreciable asset, the effect on Andrews's financial statements would be (all other items remaining equal):
Answer:
Increase Net Cash from operations
Explanation:
Note that the purchase of another depreciable asset means that annual depreciation expense would increase( increase on the old asset which is $1,469,867 plus the depreciation on newly acquired asset), hence, assuming that net income remains the same as last year(the meaning of all other items remaining equal), when the amount of increased depreciation is added back to the net income in the cash flow statement, the amount of net cash flow from operations would increase compared to last year.
In essence, the correct option in this case is that there would be an increase in net cash from operations not just an increase in amount of asset in the balance sheet

Answer:
A. work hours growth and labor productivity growth
Explanation:
An economy is a function of how money, means of production and resources (raw materials) are carefully used to facilitate the demands and supply of goods and services to meet the unending needs or requirements of the consumers.
Hence, a region's or country's economy is largely dependent on how resources are being allocated and utilized, how many goods and services are to be produced, what should be produced, for whom they are to be produced for and how much money are to be spent by the consumers to acquire these goods and services.

III. Traditional economy.
IV. Command economy.
Generally, the sources of economic growth of a country are work hours growth and labor productivity growth.
Labor (working) is simply the human capital or workers who are saddled with the responsibility of overseeing and managing all the aspects of production.

Answer:
The minimum annual cash flow required to accept the project is:
= $63,883.17
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Initial investment cost of the project = $461,300
Project's estimated life = 10 years
Project's required return rate = 8.1%
The minimum annual cash flow required to accept the project is derived from an online financial calculator as follows:
N (# of periods) 10
I/Y (Interest per year) 8.1
PV (Present Value) 461300
FV (Future Value) 0
Results:
PMT = $63,883.17
Sum of all periodic payments = $638,831.69
Total Interest = $177,531.69
lannigan Company manufactures and sells a single product that sells for $450 per unit; variable costs are $270. Annual fixed costs are $800,000. Current sales volume is $4,200,000. Compute the current margin of safety in dollars for Flannigan Company
Answer:
$2,200,000
Explanation:
Margin of safety means by how much sales can fall before a firm starts making a loss.
Margin of safety = Current Sales - Break even sales
where,
Break even sales = Fixed Cost ÷ Contribution margin ratio
= $800,000 ÷ 0.40
= $2,000,000
therefore,
Margin of safety = $4,200,000 - $2,000,000
= $2,200,000

C. the salvage value of the investment at the end of its useful life. D. tax savings generated by depreciation expense. E. the original cost paid for the capital investment.
Answer:

cost reductions in operating costs.
the salvage value of the investment at the end of its useful life
tax savings generated by depreciation expense.
Cash outflows reduces the cash available in a project. They are usually subtracted
they include
the original cost paid for the capital investment.
working capital investment
A project is profitable if cash inflow exceeds cash outflow
Typical cash inflows of a capital investment project do not include the original cost paid for the capital investment.
A capital investment project is regarded as a project that aims at increasing the assets of the business. The inflows in these projects are derived when cash outflows are subtracted from revenues and cash flows of the project.
Therefore, the original cost that would be paid for the capital investment becomes part of cash outflow from the business, which decreases the total availability of cash.
