Answer:
The annual YTM will be = 6.133735546% rounded off to 6.13%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity or YTM is the yield or return that an investor can earn on the bond if the bond is purchased today and is held till the bond matures. The formula to calculate the Yield to maturity of a bond is as follows,
YTM = [ ( C + (F - P / n)) / (F + P / 2) ]
Where,
C is the coupon payment
F is the Face value of the bond
P is the current value of the bond
n is the number of years to maturity
Coupon payment = 1000 * 0.06 * 6/12 = 30
Number of periods remaining till maturity = 11 * 2 = 22
semi annual YTM = [ (30 + (1000 - 989 / 22)) / (1000 + 989 / 2)
semi annual YTM = 0.03066867773 or 3.066867773% rounded off to 3.07%
The annual YTM will be = 3.066867773% * 2 = 6.133735546% rounded off to 6.13%
Answer:
Option B) 3 or 4; 2 or fewer
Explanation:
A high quality factor will not meet 3 or 4 and low quality factor will not meet 1 or 0 so option A, C and D are incorrect.
The correct option is B. 3 or 4; 2 or fewer as a high quality factor will meet three or four of the AQCD criteria; a low quality factor will meet two or fewer of the AQCD critieria.
Answer:
Number of years = 7.54 or 8 years
Explanation:
We know,
YTM =
Here,
I = Coupon payment
M = Par value
V = Market price
Given,
M = Par value = $1,000
V = Market price = $1,119.34
I = Coupon Payment = Par value × Coupon rate = $1,000 × 6.4% = $64
Since, it is a semi-annual payment = $64/2 = $32
YTM = 4.6%
Therefore, putting the value into the above formula, we can get
YTM =
or, 0.046 =
or, 0.046 =
or, 47.82988 = [Multiplying both the sides by 1,039.78]
or, 47.82988n = 32n - 119.34 [Multiplying both the sides by n]
or, 47.82988n - 32n = -119.34
or, -15.82988n = -119.34
or, n = (-119.34) ÷ (-15.82988)
Therefore, n = 7.54 years or almost 8 years.
b. Activities that add value
c. Activities that contribute to organizational capabilities
d. Activities that are followed by other vendors
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
According to VRIO there are 4 questions asked about a resource or capability to determine its competitive potential:
The Question of Value: Is the firm able to exploit an opportunity or neutralize an external threat with the resource/capability?" (can it add value? )
The Question of Rarity: "Is control of the resource/capability in the hands of a relative few?"
The Question of Imitability: "Is it difficult to imitate, and will there be significant cost disadvantage to a firm trying to obtain, develop, or duplicate the resource/capability?" (can other vendors do the same activities?)
The Question of Organization: "Is the firm organized, ready, and able to exploit the resource/capability?" "Is the firm organized to capture value?"
With those 4 questions, we analize the statements.
a. It is in accordance with the question of imitability.
b. It is in accordance with the question of value.
c. It is in accordance with the question of organization.
d. It should be avoided. We don't want our activities to be imitated.
Answer:
realized loss = -20.31%
Explanation:
stock price ¥3,150, total operation ¥315,000
in US dollars = ¥315,000 x $0.00952 = $2,998.80
current market price ¥3,465, total operation ¥346,500
in US dollars = ¥346,500 / ¥145 = $2,389.66
realized loss = (current value in US dollars - initial investment) / initial investment = ($2,389.66 - $2,998.80) / $2,998.80 = -20.31%
Even though the stock price increased significantly (10%), the yen depreciated against the dollar even more (-38%)
