Suppose inflation rate is 6% for the past year. The inflation rate is expected to be 5% in the coming year and 4% per year thereafter. Assume that the real risk free rate r*, will remain at 2% over the next 10 years. The yield on a 5-year Treasury bond is 6.3% and the yield on a 10-year corporate bond is 8.4%. A 5-year corporate bond has the same maturity risk premium as the 5-year Treasury bond described. The 5-year corporate bond also has the same default risk premium and liquidity premium as the 10-year corporate bond described. Given that the maturity risk premium for the 10-year corporate bond is 0.3%, what is the yield on the 5-year corporate bond?

Ans : 8.3%

Exercise 2-15 Plantwide and Departmental Predetermined Overhead Rates; Job Costs [LO2-1, LO2-2, LO2-3, LO2-4]

[The following information applies to the questions displayed below.]

Delph Company uses a job-order costing system and has two manufacturing departments—Molding and Fabrication. The company provided the following estimates at the beginning of the year:

  

Molding Fabrication Total
Machine-hours 31,000 41,000 72,000
Fixed manufacturing overhead costs $ 710,000 $ 280,000 $ 990,000
Variable manufacturing overhead cost per machine-hour $ 5.50 $ 5.50

  

During the year, the company had no beginning or ending inventories and it started, completed, and sold only two jobs—Job D-70 and Job C-200. It provided the following information related to those two jobs:

  

Job D-70: Molding Fabrication Total
Direct materials cost $ 371,000 $ 325,000 $ 696,000
Direct labor cost $ 230,000 $ 130,000 $ 360,000

Suppose you have a trait in which males exhibit the trait with much greater frequency than females. Females can pass the trait to all of their offspring even if they themselves don’t exhibit the trait while males pass the trait to only their female offspring. A) Explain what pattern of inheritance is described in this scenario. B) Give a specific example of a genetic trait that shows this pattern of inheritance. C) If you have a female offspring that exhibits a trait with this pattern of inheritance, what can you conclude about the genotypes of her parents? D) If you have a man that exhibits a trait like this, who is married to a woman whose father also exhibited a trait like this, what would be the expected phenotype ratios of their offspring?

Water has a number of unique properties that sets it apart from other substances, sometimes called the “anomalies of water.” The most commonly recognized anomalies are: The match between the range of temperatures of liquid water and the “normal” temperatures on earth. Water’s high specific heat (and therefore water’s good coolant/”temperature buffer” properties). Water’s “universal solvent” properties (ability to dissolve a wide range of different substances). The lower density of ice vs. liquid water (the fact that water “expands when freezing”). Water’s high cohesion and high surface tension (its property of “sticking together” strongly, forming droplets and making water surface resist being stretched or broken). Pick 1 of these properties and learn more about how it canbe explained from the viewpoint of attraction forces between molecules and/orother physical properties of water, as well as the significance of these properties for life on earth. You can use the textbook and any other online materials, though you may want to review the articles in the Additional Materials folder of this module/week. Based on the information you have learned, write a thread about 1 of the anomalies, referencing your sources and address the following points: How is the anomaly explained from the viewpoint of the properties of water molecules (if it is relatively clear)? What is the significance of these properties for life on earth? Or, what is the significance for the functioning of the human body? How does this property of water reflect (or play into) God’s design of earth and life?
