Minimum number of units to be issued = 45,791.4 units

Explanation:

The units of the bonds to be sold to raise the money equals to the price of the bonds divided by the sum to be raised

The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows expected from the bond discounted using the yield to maturity.

These cash flows include interest payment and redemption value

The price of the bond can be calculated as follows:

Step 1

PV of interest payment

Semi-annual coupon rate = 5.72/2 = 2.86 %

Semi-annual Interest payment =( 2.86 %×$1000)= $28.6

Semi annual yield = 6.85%/2 = 3.42%

PV of interest payment

= A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

A- interest payment, r- yield -3.42%, n- no of periods- 2 × 22 = 44 periods

= 28.6× (1-(1.0342)^(-44)/0.0342)= 645.82

Step 2

PV of redemption value (RV)

PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)

RV - redemption value- $1000, n- 7, r- 4.5%

= 1,000 × (1+0.0342)^(-2×22)

= 1000 × 1.0342^(-44)= 227.7

Step 3

Price of bond = PV of interest payment + PV of RV

645.82 + 227.7= 873.525

Minimum number of units to be issued = $40 million/873.5= 45,791.4 units

Minimum number of units to be issued = 45,791.4 units

unlike sports or games economic is a game without losers or winner rather it is a game where everyone wins. parties of business doing businesses exchange money with each other and hence exchange is done on the basis of goods. one party takes the goods and other sales it so there is winner on both sides. each party values more highly the good it gets than the good it gives up. both sides exchange only because both intend to increase their value. so there is no concept of lose or win.

An important application of regression analysis in accounting is in the estimation of cost. by collecting data on volume and cost and using the least squares method to develop an estimated regression equation relating volume and cost, an accountant can estimate the cost associated with a particular manufacturing volume. consider the following sample of production volumes and total cost data for a manufacturing operation. production volume (units) total cost ($) 400 4000 450 5000 550 5400 600 5900 700 6400 750 7000 compute b 1 and b 0 (to 2 decimals if necessary). b 1 b 0 complete the estimated regression equation (to 2 decimals if necessary). = + x what is the variable cost per unit produced (to 1 decimal)? $ compute the coefficient of determination (to 4 decimals). note: report r 2 between 0 and 1. r 2 = what percentage of the variation in total cost can be explained by the production volume (to 2 decimals)? % the company's production schedule shows 500 units must be produced next month. what is the estimated total cost for this operation (to 2 decimals)? $
