An investor buys a 10-year, 7% coupon bond for $1,050, holds it for 1 year, and then sells it for $1,040. What was the investor's rate of return?
Answer:
The answer is 5.71%
Explanation:
Solution
Given that
Coupon rate = 7%
Bond = $1050
Sale of the bond = $1040
n = 10 years, n = 1 year
Now we find the investor's rate of return
Thus
Coupon payment = 7%* 1000
=70
1050 = 70/(1+r) + $1,040/(1+r)
r= 5.71%
Therefore the rate of return of the investor is 5.71%
or
Rate of return = (P1-P0+ Interest ) /P0
= (1040 -1050 + 70 )/1050
= .0571 or 5.71%

A North Face retail store in Chicago sells 500 jackets each month. Each jacket costs the store $100 and the company has an annual holding cost of 25 percent. The fixed cost of a replenishment order (including transportation cost) is $100. The store currently places a replenishment order for Q.
1. What is the annual holding and ordering cost?
2. On average, how long does a jacket spend in inventory?
3. If the retail store wants to minimize ordering and holding cost, what order size do you recommend?
4. How much would the optimal order reduce holding and ordering cost relative to the current policy?
Answer:
(1) The annual holding cost is =$6250, The ordering costs is = 500 units
(2) The total cost is = $7450
(3)224 unit
(4) $1,864.30
Explanation:
Solution
Given that:
The annual demand = 520 units * 12
= 6,240 units
The cost per order = $100 per order
The Carrying Cost = 0.25% * $100
= 25 per unit per year
Thus
(1) The Ordering quantity = 500 units every month
The annual holding cost =0.5*quantity ordered*holding cost
The Annual Holding cost = 0.5*500*25
Annual Holding cost =$6250
(2) The ordering (Annual)cost = number of orders *cost per order
Annual ordering cost =(500*12/500)*100
Annual ordering cost =$1200
Total cost = 6250+1200=7450
(3)Thus
EOQ=(2*D*S/h)^0.5
EOQ=(2*6240*100/25^)0.5
EOQ=223.43
=224 unit
(4)The ordering cost =(6240/224)*100=2785.70
Holding cost=0.5*224*25
=2800
Total cost= 2785.70+2800
Total cost=5585.70
Total savings = 7450 - 5585.70
= $1,864.30
What is the coupon rate for a bond with 3 years until maturity, a price of $1,053.46, and a yield to maturity of 6%? Interest is paid annually.
Answer:
Coupon rate is 8%
Explanation:
We can ascertain the coupon rate by first of all determine the amount of coupon with pmt excel function below:
=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)
rate is yield to maturity of 6%
nper is the number of coupons before maturity i.e 3 annual coupons in three years
pv is the current market price of $1,053.46
fv is the par value of $1,000
=pmt(6%,3,-1053.46,1000)=80
Coupon rate=pmt/face value=80/1000=8%
