Miller Corporation has two bonds outstanding. Both bonds have coupon rates of 10% and one has a maturity of 10 years, while the other has a maturity of 20 years. Interest is paid semi-annually. Calculate the following for both bonds.

A) If market rates for bonds of equal risk fell to 8% what would be the maximum price an investor would be willing to pay for these bonds?
B) If market rates for bonds of equal risk remained at 10%, what would be the bonds' current worth?
C) If market rates for bonds of equal risk rose to 12%, what would be the bonds' theoretical value?

Bond A: 10 years semiannually = 20 periods
Bond B: 20 years semiannually = 40 periods

The number of new contributors to a public radio station's annual fund drive over the last 11 years is provided. Develop a linear trend equation to forecast the number of contributors for each year. 27, 18, 30, 29, 37, 40, 50, 47, 52, 70, 68

what is the forecasted number of contributors for year 6? (show answer to 2 decimal places）

What is the forecasted number of contributors for year 12? (show answer to 2 decimal places)

Info

1. Current YTM = 8.5%

2. Liabilities at the end of 5 years = 10,000(1.085)^5 = 15,036.56

3. Buy the bond that has a coupon of 8%, YTM 8.5%, N = 5

Calculate -

1. Duration

2. Can you match duration of your liabilities?

3. Calculate what happens if your YTM rises by 1%

***please only answer question 2 [Can you match duration of your liabilities?]. i will post 3 after i get the answer for 2. i included them in case they were important.***

Consider a stock that does not pay dividend. A one-year European put option with strike $40 is trading at $2.40 and a one-year European put option with strike $50 is trading at $12.30. The risk-free interest rate is 5% per annum with continuous compounding. Construct an arbitrage strategy.

Suppose that there are 27 matches originally on the table, and you are challenged by your dinner partner to play this game. Each player must pick up either 1, 2, 3, or 4 matches, with the player who picks up the last match pays for dinner. What is your optimal strategy? (Describe your decision rule as concisely as you can.)

The restaurant at the Hotel Galaxy offers two choices for breakfast: an all-you-can-eat buffet and an a la carte option, where diners can order from the menu. The buffet option has a budgeted meal price of $44. The a la carte option has a budgeted average price of $33 for a meal. The restaurant manager expects that 40 percent of its diners will order the buffet option. The buffet option has a budgeted variable cost of $24 and the a la carte option averages $19 per meal in budgeted variable cost. The manager estimates that 2,600 people will order a meal in any month.

For July, the restaurant served a total of 2,400 meals, including 940 buffet options. Total revenues were $42,300 for buffet meals and $52,560 for the a la carte meals.

Required:

a. Compute the activity variance for the restaurant for July.

b. Compute the mix and quantity variances for July.
