Answer: E) Recoding
Explanation:
Recoding refers to the changing of a variable to better suit the needs for which the variable is being collected.
The variable's parameters can be redefined using recoding to either include more information or less so that the result can be more reflective of the situation on ground.
In mixing the lowest income category with the next lowest, recoding would have occurred.
Answer:
It seems that someinformation is missing, nevertheless, it is possible to calculate the market value of the firm if you have the total number of shares.
Explanation:
In this case, if the question says that the "outstanding shares" haven't changed, it means that the total number of shares neither, therefore it is possible to get the market value by multiplying $180 (the stock price for 1 share) per the total number of shares
Answer:
they have 25 quarters and 19 nickels
Explanation:
let N = number of nickels
let Q = number of quarters
5N + 25Q = 720
N + Q = 44
N = 44 - Q (now we must replace)
5(44 - Q) + 25Q = 720
220 - 5Q + 25Q = 720
20Q = 720 - 220 = 500
Q = 500 / 20 = 25
N = 44 - 25 = 19
Answer:
Current value = $550
Explanation:
You can solve this question using a financial calculator. I am using (Texas Instruments BA II plus)
First, since it is Semiannual coupon, adjust the interest rate to semi-annual rate and multiply 15 years by 2 since we have 2 semi annual periods per year.
<em>Note: If using the same calculator as me, key in the numbers first before the function .</em>
Total duration of investment ;N = 15 * 2 = 30
Interest rate; I/Y = 16% / 2 = 8%
Face value; FV = 1000
Semi annual Coupon Payment ; PMT = (8%/2)*1000 = 40
then CPT PV = $549.689
Therefore the current value of this bond is $550 (rounded to whole number.)
