Which of the following statement is incorrect? The general pattern of cash flows from a bond...

Which of the following statement is incorrect? The general pattern of cash flows from a bond with a positive coupon rate are the coupon interest payments at regular intervals throughout the life of the bond and the face value payment on the maturity date. A bond's market price depends on its yield to maturity and when the YTM is equal to the coupon rate, the market price equals the face value. Cash payments from preferred stock dividends are scheduled to continue forever. To value businesses, assets, and securities, investors and financial managers use a general valuation model to calculate the future value of the historical net income values and that model unfortunately does not incorporate risk and return, and time value of money concepts. Most of the answers are correct.

ThreePoint Sports Inc. manufactures basketballs for the Women’s National Basketball Association (WNBA). For the first 6 months of 2020, the company reported the following operating results while operating at 80% of plant capacity and producing 119,500 units.

Amount
Sales $4,660,500
Cost of goods sold 3,675,040
Selling and administrative expenses 516,825
Net income $468,635


Fixed costs for the period were cost of goods sold $960,000, and selling and administrative expenses $236,000.

In July, normally a slack manufacturing month, ThreePoint Sports receives a special order for 10,000 basketballs at $27 each from the Greek Basketball Association (GBA). Acceptance of the order would increase variable selling and administrative expenses $0.77 per unit because of shipping costs but would not increase fixed costs and expenses.

Partially correct answer iconYour answer is partially correct.

(a) Prepare an incremental analysis for the special order. (Round all per unit computations to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25. Enter negative amounts using either a negative sign preceding the number e.g. -45 or parentheses e.g. (45).)
