Suppose the following bond quotes for IOU Corporation appear in the financial page of today’s newspaper. Assume the bond has a face value of $2,000 and the current date is April 19, 2018. Company (Ticker) Coupon Maturity Last Price Last Yield EST Vol (000s) IOU (IOU) 6 Apr 19, 2034 111.44 ?1,851 a. What is the yield to maturity of the bond?
Answer:
YTM = 4%
Explanation:
Company (Ticker) Coupon Maturity Last Price Last Yield EST Vol (000s)
IOU (IOU) 6 Apr 19, 2034 111.44 ? 1,851
Determine the yield to maturity
YTM = Rate * 2
years to maturity = 2034 - 2018 = 16 years
NPER = 2 * 16 = 32
PMT = ( face value * coupon rate ) / 2 = ( 2000 * 6% ) / 2 = 60
price of coupon ( PV ) = 2000 * 111.44% = 2228.8
Rate = 2% ( excel function : RATE(32,60,-2228.8,2000)
hence YTM = 2% * 2 = 4%
A U.S. bakery buys wheat from Canada and pays for it with US dollars. This transaction a. increases Canadian net exports, and increases U.S. net capital outflow. b. increases Canadian net exports, and decreases U.S. net capital outflow. c. decreases Canadian net exports, and increases U.S. net capital outflow. d. decreases Canadian net exports, and decreases U.S. net capital outflow.
Answer: b. increases Canadian net exports, and decreases U.S. net capital outflow.
Explanation:
Based on the information given, the net export of Canada will increase. Net exports measures the total trade of a country. It's the difference between the country's export and its import.
Since the U.S bakery is buying wheat from Canada, it means the export will increase thereby increasing the country net export. On the other hand, there's a reduction in the net capital outflow of the United States.
Therefore, the correct option is B

The cash payments expected for Finch Company in the month of April are
Answer:
$187,975
Explanation:
Calculation to determine The cash payments expected for Finch Company in the month of April
Cash Payment= 3/4 *$198,500 (May's manufacturing cost)+1/4 *$156,400 (April's manufacturing cost received in May)
Cash Payment=$148,875+$39,100
Cash Payment=$187,975
The The cash payments expected for Finch Company in the month of April are $187,975
Bonds often pay a coupon twice a year. For the valuation of bonds that make semiannual payments, the number of periods doubles, whereas the amount of cash flow decreases by half. Using the values of cash flows and the number of periods, the valuation model is adjusted accordingly.
Assume that a $1,000,000 par value, semiannual coupon U.S. Treasury note with five years to maturity (YTM) has a coupon rate of 3%. The yield to maturity of the bond is 7.70%.
Using this information and ignoring the other involved, calculate the value of the Treasury note:
a) $509,016.47
b) $686,768.25
c) $969,555.18
d) $807,962.65.
Based on your calculations and understanding of semiannual coupon bonds, complete the following statement:
Assuming that interest rates remain constant, the T-note's price is expected to:___________.
Answer:
1.
Bond Price or Present value = $807962.6540 rounded off to $807962.65
Option d is the correct answer
2.
Assuming that interest rates remain constant, the T-note's price is expected to increase.
Explanation:
1.
To calculate the quote/price of the bond today, which is the present value of the bond, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the semi annual coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 1000000 * 0.03 * 6/12 = $15000
Total periods (n) = 5 * 2 = 10
r or YTM = 7.7% * 6/12 = 3.85% or 0.0385
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 15000 * [( 1 - (1+0.0385)^-10) / 0.0385] + 1000000 / (1+0.0385)^10
Bond Price or Present value = $807962.6540 rounded off to $807962.65
2.
Assuming the interest rates remain constant, the T-note's price is expected to increase as the T-note comes close to its maturity. The bonds that are issued at discount see an increase in price when interest rate remains constant and the time to their maturity decreases as they pay par value at maturity and discount is amortized.
Restricted stock units (RSUs): Multiple Choice are a grant valued in terms of a set number of shares of company stock. are reported as a liability if payable in shares rather than cash. are recorded based on a value estimated by a restricted stock valuation model. represent shares issued at the date of grant that must be returned if the recipient fails to satisfy the vesting requirement.
Answer:
grant valued in terms of a set number of shares of company stock
Explanation:
A restricted stock unit (RSU) is a type of compensation (company shares) that is issued to an employee by an employer.

Classify each event either as shifting the aggregate demand curve or as causing movement along the curve.
a. As inflation drops to nearly zero, people save more and therefore more loanable funds are available.
b. Technological advances generate wealth in a broad range of industries.
Answer:
Classification of events as Shifting the Aggregate Demand Curve or Causing Movement along the Curve:
a. = shifting the aggregate demand curve.
b. = causing movement along the demand curve.
Explanation:
When technological advances generate wealth in a broad range of industries, the movement along the demand curve denotes a change in both price and quantity demanded. This is obtainable because technological advances usually reduce costs of production and prices. The reduced price can increase demand. On the other hand, inflation that drops to nearly zero will cause a shift in a demand curve because the quantity demanded can increase with the price of the good remaining the same.

In the short run or in shorter time periods supply curves tend to:_______
a) be perfectly elastic
b) be more inelastic than supply curves that apply to longer periods of time
c) be more elastic than supply curves that apply to longer periods of time
d) have a price elasticity of supply that's approximately equal to 1
Answer:
b) be more inelastic than supply curves that apply to longer periods of time.
Explanation:
In Economics, there are primarily two (2) factors which affect the availability and the price at which goods and services are sold or provided, these are demand and supply. In order to understand both short-run economic fluctuations and how the economy move from short to long run, we need the aggregate supply and aggregate demand model.
Aggregate supply (AS) refers to the total quantity of output (goods and services) that firms are willing to produce and sell at a given price in an economy at a particular period of time.
An aggregate supply curve gives the relationship between the aggregate price level for goods or services and the quantity of aggregate output supplied in an economy at a specific period of time.
In the short run or in shorter time periods supply curves tend to be more inelastic than supply curves that apply to longer periods of time.
This ultimately implies that, a rightward shift in the aggregate supply (AS) curve causes output to increase and result in a price fall (lower price), in the short run.
However, in the long-run or in longer time periods, supply curves tend to be fairly elastic than supply curves that apply to shorter periods of time.
Game theory assumes that: Group of answer choices firms anticipate rival firms' decisions when they make their own decisions. firms ignore rival firms' decisions when they make their own decisions. a firm will always follow the pricing strategy of the dominant firm in the industry. markets are contestable because there are no barriers to entry.
Answer:
firms anticipate rival firms' decisions when they make their own decisions.
Explanation:
Game theory assumes that firms anticipate rival firms' decisions when they make their own decisions. It is very important and necessary for understanding firms operating in an oligopolistic market.
An oligopoly can be defined as a market structure comprising of a small number of firms (sellers) offering identical or similar products, wherein none can limit the significant influence of others.
Hence, it is a market structure that is distinguished by several characteristics, one of which is either similar or identical products and dominance by few firms.
This ultimately implies that, under the game theory, when firms makes a decision about their business, it is expected that they consider how the other firms would react to such decisions.

Blossom, Inc. began work in 2021 on a contract for $20720000. Other data are as follows: 2021 2022 Costs incurred to date $8880000 $13900000 Estimated costs to complete 5920000 0 Billings to date 6960000 20800000 Collections to date 4960000 17900000 If Blossom uses the percentage-of-completion method, the gross profit to be recognized in 2021 is $3552000. $4000000. $5560000. $5920000.
Answer:
the gross profit using the percentage-of-completion method is $3,552,000
Explanation:
The computation of the gross profit using the percentage-of-completion method is given below
= Contract Value × given percentage - total cost incurred
= $20,720,000 × $8,880,000 ÷ ($8,880,000 + $5,920,000) - $8,880,000
= $12,432,000 - $8,880,000
= $3,552,000
hence, the gross profit using the percentage-of-completion method is $3,552,000
Concept manufactures small tables in its Processing Department. Direct materials are added at the initiation of the production cycle and must be bundled in single kits for each unit. Conversion costs are incurred evenly throughout the production cycle. Before inspection, some units are spoiled due to undetectable materials defects. Inspection occurs when units are completed. Spoiled units generally constitute 3% of the good units. Data for December 2017 are as follows: WIP, beginning inventory 12/1/2017 17,600 units Direct materials (100% complete) Conversion costs (20% complete) Started during December 60,900 units Completed and transferred out 12/31/2017 58,200 units WIP, ending inventory 12/31/2017 18,000 units Direct materials (100% complete) Conversion costs (80% complete) Costs for December: WIP, beginning Inventory: Direct materials $183,600 Conversion costs 92,500 Direct materials added 269,280 Conversion costs added 352,800 Abnormal spoilage totals ________.
Answer:
554 units
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the Abnormal spoilage totals
Abnormal spoilage totals=[(17,600+ 60,900) - ( 58,200+18,000)]-3% x 58,200
Abnormal spoilage totals=[(78,500-76,200)-1,746]
Abnormal spoilage totals=2,300-1,746
Abnormal spoilage totals= 554 units
Therefore the Abnormal spoilage totals is 554 units

A manufacturing company that has only one product has established the following standards for its variable manufacturing overhead. The company uses machine-hours as its measure of activity.
Standard Hours per Unit of Output 8.1 machine hours
Standard Variable Overhead Rate $14.30 per machine hour
The following data pertain to operations for the last month:
Actual Hours 1,700 machine hours
Actual Total Variable Overhead Cost $24,905
Actual Output 200 units
What is the variable overhead efficiency variance for the month?
a. $567 favourable.
b. $1,144 unfavourable.
c. $1,172 favourable.
d. $1,172 unfavourable.
Answer:
b. $1,144 unfavourable.
Explanation:
The computation of the variable overhead efficiency variance is shown below:
= (Actual Hours - Standard Hours) × Standard rate per hour
=(1,700 - 8.1 × 200 units) × $14.30
= 80 × $14.30
= $1,144 unfavorable
hence, the variable overhead efficiency variance is $1,144 unfavorable
Therefore the option b is correct
Peyton sells an office building and the associated land on May 1 of the current year. Under the terms of the sales contract, Peyton is to receive $1,950,800 in cash. The purchaser is to assume Peyton's mortgage of $1,170,480 on the property. To enable the purchaser to obtain adequate financing, Peyton is to pay the $23,410 in points charged by the lender. The broker's commission on the sale is $78,032. What is Peyton's amount realized
Answer: $3,019,838
Explanation:
Peyton will gain the cash from this transaction.
Peyton will also gain the mortgage that is assumed by the buyer because they are being freed from debt.
They will however incur the expense of the broker's commission and the points they have to pay for.
Amount Peyton will recognize:
= Cash received from sale + Peyton mortgage assumed by Buyer - Points Peyton pays for - Broker's commission
= 1,950,800 + 1,170,480 - 23,410 - 78,032
= $3,019,838

A Parent Company owns 100 percent of its Subsidiary. During 2018, the Parent company reports net income (by itself, without any investment income from its Subsidiary) of $650,000 and the subsidiary reports net income of $260,000. The parent had a bond payable outstanding on January 1, 2018, with a carrying value equal to $546,000. The Subsidiary acquired the bond on January 1, 2018 for $513,500. During 2018, the Parent reported interest expense (related to the bond) of $45,500, while the Subsidiary reported interest income (related to the bond) of $41,600. What is consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2018
Answer:
$913,900
Explanation:
Calculation to determine the consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2018
Using this formula
Ending consolidated net income =(2018 Parent company net income+Subsidiary reports net income)+(Parent reported interest expense-Subsidiary reported interest income)
Let plug in the formula
Ending consolidated net income=( $650,000+ $260,000)+($45,500-$41,600
Ending consolidated net income= $650,000+ $260,000+ $3,900
Ending consolidated net income=$913,900
Therefore the consolidated net income for the year ended December 31, 2018 is $913,900

The Postal Service is negotiating a new three-year agreement with two of its unions. One represents the clerks and one the mail carriers. The USPS negotiators are in two separate teams, one negotiating with each of the two unions. The two unions are not affiliated or legally tied to each other in any way, but they do talk informally. After both negotiations have concluded, the USPS management negotiators discovered that the clerk union and the carrier union were sharing information about what they were getting from management. For example, at the time that the clerk union was seeking to have management pay 50% of health insurance, the carrier union quietly told the clerk union that management had tentatively agreed to pay 55% for the carriers. Knowing this, the clerks decided to raise the demand to 55%, and were ultimately successful. The USPS is now considering a lawsuit or filing an Unfair Labor Practice for the unions sharing this information during the conduct of active negotiations, and voiding the 55% coverage of health care insurance that had been agreed to for the clerk union, arguing that it was negotiated based on illegally obtained information. Which of the following is most correct?
A. The actions of the clerk and carrier unions are not prohibited, and management does not have any recourse to recover damages nor to win an Unfair Labor Practice.
B. The actions of the clerk and carrier unions are not prohibited, and management cannot fire an Unfair Labor Practice. USPS can successfully sue both unions for damages related to the 55% paid for health care insurance for clerks.
C. This is an example of a lock-in agreement between the two unions and is prohibited by the NLRB.
D. All of the above are correct.
Answer: A. The actions of the clerk and carrier unions are not prohibited, and management does not have any recourse to recover damages nor to win an Unfair Labor Practice.
Explanation:
An unfair labor practice simply occurs when the National Labor Relations Act is being violated. Some if the unfair labor practice include when a worker is threatened when he or she files a ULP charge. Also, the refusal to negotiate with an agency in good faith etc.
In the scenario in the question, we should note that the actions of the clerk and the carrier unions are not prohibited, and then the management does not have any recourse to recover damages nor to win an Unfair Labor Practice.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
