Term (In Years) Price (In $)
0.5 100
1 97
1.5 96
2 93
2.5 92
3 91
4 89

b. How would you arbitrage the opportunity if you found out that the bond in Part A above was trading at par? Specifically, explain which bond/s will you buy and which one/s will be sell today and in how much quantities?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) the current price of the bond is:

($50 x 1) + ($50 x 0.97) + ($50 x 0.96) + ($50 x 0.93) + ($50 x 0.92) + ($1,050 x 0.91) = $1,194.50    

B) assuming that the bond is trading at par, you have a great opportunity to make money:

maturity                zero coupon                         return of coupon

                             bond's price                          bond

0                            $1,000                                       $0

0.5                         $1,000                                       $50

1                                $970                                       $100

1.5                            $960                                       $150

2                              $930                                       $200

2.5                           $920                                       $250

3                              $910                                        $300

You can buy 10 coupon bonds = -$10,000

Sell short 1 One-year zero coupon bond = $970

Sell short 1 Two-year zero coupon bond = $930

Sell short 11 Three-year zero coupon bond = $10,010

Positive cash flow = $1,910

At the end of year 1, you can pay the One-year zero coupon bond with the coupons received = $1,000 (cash flows = $0)

At the end of year 2, you can pay the Two-year zero coupon bond with the coupons received = $1,000 (cash flows = $0)

At the end of year 3, you can pay the Three-year zero coupon bonds with the coupons + maturity value received = $11,000 (cash flows = $0)

If the coupon bonds are selling at par, you could earn today $1,910 for every 10 bonds that you buy.

5.A 15-year corporate bond has a par value of $100,000 and a 4.5% annual coupon rate. Assume that your required rate of return is 8% and that you plan to hold onto this bond for 10 years. You and the market have expectations that in 10 years the yield-to-maturity for this bond (or another bond with similar risk and maturity) will be 10%. How much are you willing to pay for this bond today

Answers

Answer:

$66,857.55

Explanation:

The price of the bond in 10 years will be:

PV of face value = $100,000 / (1 + 10%)⁵ = $62,092.13

PV of coupon payments = $4,500 x 3.7908 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 5 periods) = $17,058.60

market value in 10 years = $79,150.73

In order to determine the price that you are willing to pay for the bond:

PV of market value in 10 years = $79,150.73 / (1 + 8%)¹⁰ = $36,662.10

PV of coupon payments = $4,500 x 6.7101 (PV annuity factor, 8%, 20 periods) = $30,195.45

Price you should be willing to pay = $66,857.55

Answers

Answer:

In 2020, a company receives advance payments from its customers. The company will deliver the products in 2021. At the end of 2020, the company will ____1______ related to this transaction (enter 1, 2, 3, or 4 that represents the correct answer).

1. record a deferred tax asset

Explanation:

For having paid income tax in 2020 on the cash received for deferred revenue, the company will record a deferred tax asset.  This deferred tax asset will then be offset in 2021 when the sales revenue will be recorded according to the financial income accounting.  Deferred tax asset arises from the overpayment or advance payment of taxes.  The opposite of a deferred tax asset is called a deferred tax liability, representing income tax owed, which will be settled in the coming years.

For fixed costs of $2,000, revenue per unit of $2, and variable cost per unit of $1.60, the break-even quantity is:

Answers

Answer:

Break even in units = 5000 units

Explanation:

Break even quantity or break even in units is the quantity of units that must be sold in order for the company to break even. Break even is a situation where the total revenue of the business equals its total costs and there is a situation of no profit and no loss.

The formula to calculate break even quantity is,

Break even in units = Fixed costs / Contribution margin per unit

Where,

Contribution margin per unit = Selling price per unit - Variable cost per unit

Contribution margin per unit = 2 - 1.6  =  $0.4

Break even in units = 2000 / 0.4

Break even in units = 5000 units

The real risk-free rate is 3.05%, inflation is expected to be 3.60% this year, and the maturity risk premium is zero. Ignoring any cross-product terms, i.e., if averaging is required, use the arithmetic average, what is the equilibrium rate of return on a 1-year Treasury bond? - Google Search

Answers

Answer:

6.65%

Explanation:

Real risk-free rate = 3.05% (r*)

Expected inflation = 3.60% (IP)

Maturity risk premium = zero

1-year bond yield = r* + IP

1-year bond yield = 3.05% + 3.60%

1-year bond yield = 6.65%

Hence, the equilibrium rate of return on a 1-year Treasury bond is 6.65%

Consider the following information: Portfolio Expected Return Standard Deviation Risk-free 6 % 0 % Market 10.8 24 A 8.8 13 a. Calculate the Sharpe ratios for the market portfolio and portfolio

Answers

Answer:

Sharpe ratio of market portfolio = 0.2

Sharpe ratio of market portfolio = 0.2154

Explanation:

Calculation for the Sharpe ratios for the market portfolio and portfolio A

Market portfolio

Using this formula

Sharpe ratio of market portfolio = (Expected return of portfolio - Risk free return on portfolio)/ Standard deviation

Let plug in the formula

Sharpe ratio of market portfolio= (10.8 - 6)/24

Sharpe ratio of market portfolio=4.8/24

Sharpe ratio of market portfolio = 0.2

Portfolio A

Using this formula

Sharpe ratio of portfolio A = (Expected return of portfolio - Risk free return on portfolio)/ Standard deviation

Let plug in the formula

Sharpe ratio of portfolio A= (8.8 - 6)/13

Sharpe ratio of portfolio A=2.8/14

Sharpe ratio of portfolio A= 0.2154

Therefore the Sharpe ratios for the market portfolio is 0.2 and portfolio A is 0.2154

Authoritative leader.

Explanation:

This is explained to be an effective leadership pattern that dictates certain forms and policies to everyone who finds himself under the said leader. Its usefulness is well seen in certain industries and organizations where decisions have to be made urgently and efficiently, and where it is important that certain tasks are performed during a specific way and there's little room for mistakes, like in construction, manufacturing and also the military.

Phoenix Financial Ltd. has suffered losses in recent years, and its stock currently sells for only $0.50 per share. Management wants to use a reverse split to get the price up to a more "reasonable" level, which it thinks is $25 per share. How many of the old shares must be given up for one new share to achieve the $25 price? Assume this transaction has no effect on total market value.

Answers

Answer:

Phoenix Financial Ltd.

For one new share to achieve the $25 price, 50 of the old shares must be given up.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Current stock price = $0.50

Reverse stock split to get the price up to a more "reasonable" level = $25 per share

To calculate the number of shares to be give up $25/$0.50 = 50 shares

b) Reverse stock split takes place when the company wants to shore up the per unit stock price. It consolidates the number of existing shares of stock into fewer, proportionally more valuable and reasonable, share price per unit. There are many reasons for reducing the outstanding shares.  It may be that the company is facing some financial distress.  Or in this case, management may want "to get the price up to a more reasonable level."

A stock has no dividends. The last period's FCFF is $4.98 and it has an estimated annual free cash flow growth rate of 8%. The WACC for this stock is 8.3% and its long term growth rate is 2.46%. It also has an ROE of 12.4%. You also found out that the firm has debt per share of $25.61. What it the estimated intrinsic value using the constant state FCFF method

Answers

Answer:

The estimated intrinsic value is $92.10

Explanation:

As per given data

FCFF = $4.98

Annual Free cash flow growth = 8%

WACC = Required rate od return = 8.3%

Long term growth rate = 2.46%

ROE = 12.4%

Use following formula to calculate the Intrinsic value

Intrinsic value = FCFF x ( 1 + Annual Free cash flow growth ) / ( WACC - Long term growth rate )

Placing values in the formula

Intrinsic value = $4.98 x ( 1 + 8% ) / ( 8.3% - 2.46% )

Intrinsic value = $92.10

In the kinked demand curve theory, price elasticity of demand is __________ at prices above the kink than below the kink. It follows that a price hike above the kink will reduce quantity demanded by __________ than a price cut below the kink will __________ quantity demanded.

Answers

Answer:

In the kinked demand curve theory, price elasticity of demand is GREATER at prices above the kink than below the kink.

It follows that a price hike above the kink will reduce quantity demanded by A PROPORTIONALLY HIGHER AMOUNT than a price cut below the kink will REDUCE IN A LESS THAN PROPORTIONAL AMOUNT THE quantity demanded.

Explanation:

A kinked demand curve refers to a demand curve that is not a straight line, and the price elasticity of demand varies depending on the price of the goods or services. The kinked demand curve model is generally used when trying to explain how oligopolies exist and why their prices tend to be sticky or rigid above the kink of the curve (due to higher price elasticity).

Marcie's has sales of $179,600,depreciation of $14,900, costs of goods sold of $138,200, and other costs of $28,400. The tax rate is 35 percent. What is the net income

Answers

Answer:

-$1,235

Explanation:

Marcie's has a sales of $179,600

Depreciation is $14,900

Cost of goods sold is $138,200

Other costs is $28,400

Tax rate is 35%

Therefore the net income can be calculated as follows

= (sales - other costs-cost of goods sold-depreciation)(1-tax rate)

= (179,600-28,400-138,200-14,900)(1-35/100)

= -1,900 × 1-0.35

= -1,900 × 0.65

= -$1,235

Hence the net income is -$1,235

a. behavior of non-buyers.
b. competitors’ misfortunes.
c. other providers in the marketplace.
d. customer satisfaction levels.

Answers

Answer:

c. other providers in the marketplace.

Explanation:

SWOT analysis can be defined as a strategic technique which is used by organizations to plan through the identification of its strength, weakness, opportunities and threats in relation to its business.

The internal environment of an organization such as employees, policies, management and culture offers an organization strength.

In the spirit of a SWOT analysis, a company’s strengths are defined somewhat relative to other providers in the marketplace. This ultimately implies that, when its close rivals in the same industry or market are not coordinated, organized, effective and efficient in their provisions of goods and services, it gives the organization a competitive advantage (strength) over them. Thus, an organization should always ensure that it uses the weakness of other providers in the marketplace as its own strength to achieve excellence.

An account is governed by compound interest. The interest for three years on $480 is $52. Find the amount of discount for two years on $1000.

Answers

Answer:

$66.27

Explanation:

using the present value formula:

($480 + $52) = $480 / (1 + r)³

$532 = $480 / (1 + r)³

(1 + r)³ = $532 / $480 = 1.108333

∛(1 + r)³ = ∛1.108333

1 + r = 1.0349

r = 0.0349 = 3.48%

if you are going to discount $1,000 by 3.48% during 2 years:

PV = $1,000/1.0348² = $933.73

the discount = $1,000 - $933.73 = $66.27

What is Corn Harvesting?

Because freshly picked corn is a delight and tastes far better than corn from the grocery store, gardeners are ready to invest their time and garden space in cultivating it. When the corn is at its absolute best, harvest it. If left alone for too long, the kernels get hard and starchy.

One of the most crucial aspects of a quality crop is knowing when to harvest the corn. About 20 days after the silk first develops, corn is ready for harvest. The husks are still green during harvest time while the silk goes brown.

Early in the morning is the finest time to harvest corn. Pull down while holding the ear firmly, then twist and pull. Usually, it is simple to remove from the stalk. For the first few days, only harvest what you can consume in a day, but be careful to gather the entire crop while it is still in the milky stage.

You manage an equity fund with an expected risk premium of 11.4% and a standard deviation of 28%. The rate on Treasury bills is 5.2%. Your client chooses to invest $50,000 of her portfolio in your equity fund and $150,000 in a T-bill money market fund. What is the expected return and standard deviation of return on your client’s portfolio? (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

The Expected return of the Portfolio is 8.05% and the standard deviation is 7%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given that

T-bill rate or risk-free rate = 5.20%

The Expected Risk premium of fund = 11.40%

As we know that

Expected Return of Equity = Risk premium + Risk free rate

= 11.4%+5.2%

= 16.60%

Now  

Weight of equity fund is

= $50,000 ÷ ($50,000 + $150,000)

= 0.25

And,  

Weight of T-bills is

= $150,000 ÷ ($50,000 + $150,000)

= 0.75

Also the correlation between risk free and the fund would always be zero  

The Standard deviation of Equity fund= 28%

ANd, the Standard deviation of T-bills= 0

Now

Expected return Portfolio = (weight of fund × expected return) + (weight of risk free × rate of return)

= (0.25 × 16.60%) + (0.75 × 5.2%)

= 8.05%

And,

The standard deviation of the portfolio (σp) is

= √(wA × standard deviation of A )^2 + (wB × standard deviation of B ) ^2 + (2 × wA × wB × standard deviation of A  ×standard deviation of A ×  rBM)

= √((0.25 × 28%)^2 + (0.75 × 0%)^2 + (2 × 0.25 × 0.75 × 28% × 0% × 0))

= 7.00%

Hence, the Expected return of the Portfolio is 8.05% and the standard deviation is 7%

Describe your journey through the carbon cycle be sure to include and explain the key processes in the cycle(include the following in your answer) Describe how the carbon atoms in CO2 absorbed via plant photosynthesis provide the carbon atoms for all of the new carbon compounds a plant produces and uses to build its cells and tissues and to burn for energy. Explain how carbon compounds are transformed in five chemical reactions that are critical to the carbon cycle: photosynthesis, cell respiration, decomposition, biosynthesis and combustion. Explain how carbon moves from one Earth System sphere (neighborhood) to another Explain how carbon changes as it moves from one part of the carbon cycle to another Describe where carbon is stored Explain the differences in the population growth patterns of the two Paramecium species. What does this tell you about how Paramecium aurelia uses available resources? 50 points !!!!!!!!Who are B.P Mathur and Pierre Jeanneret?
