2.   Understanding what maturity risk means for bonds is very important. Complete the following table by calculating the new bond prices and then the % price change that results for the two bonds given. For example, in the table if interest rates go up 1% on the short term bond, that means that the YTM would go from 4% to 5%. Then calculate the new price at a YTM of 5% and then calculate the % change in price from today's price of $1,000 to the new price.

Short term bond: Face value of $1,000 with an annual coupon rate of 4% with semi-annual payments, and a maturity in 2 years. Assume that today's YTM on a 2 year bond is 4% so therefore today's price is $1,000.

Long term bond: Face value of $1,000 with an annual coupon rate of 5% with semi-annual payments, and a maturity in 30 years. Assume that today's YTM on a 30 year bond is 5% so therefore today's price is $1,000.

Direct labor 670,000
Overhead (excluding straight-line depreciation on new machine) 338,000
Selling and administrative expenses 154,000
Income taxes 30 %


Required:

Bilboa Freightlines, S.A., of Panama, has a small truck that it uses for intracity deliveries. The truck is worn out and must be either overhauled or replaced with a new truck. The company has assembled the following information:


Present
Truck
New
Truck
Purchase cost new $ 36,000 $ 48,000
Remaining book value $ 23,000 -
Overhaul needed now $ 22,000 -
Annual cash operating costs $ 17,500 $ 16,000
Salvage value-now $ 12,000 -
Salvage value-five years from now $ 15,000 $ 6,000

    

If the company keeps and overhauls its present delivery truck, then the truck will be usable for five more years. If a new truck is purchased, it will be used for five years, after which it will be traded in on another truck. The new truck would be diesel-operated, resulting in a substantial reduction in annual operating costs, as shown above.

The company computes depreciation on a straight-line basis. All investment projects are evaluated using a 9% discount rate.

Required:

1. What is the net present value of the “keep the old truck” alternative?

2. What is the net present value of the “purchase the new truck” alternative?

3. Should Bilboa Freightlines keep the old truck or purchase the new one?

A method currently used by doctors to screen women for possible breast cancer fails to detect cancer in 20% of the women who actually have the disease. A new method has been developed that researchers hope will be able to detect cancer more accurately. A random sample of 81 women known to have breast cancer were screened using the new method. Of these, the new method failed to detect cancer in 14. Let p be the true proportion of women for which the new method fails to detect cancer. The investigator wants to conduct an appropriate test to see if the new method is more accurate using α = 0.05. Assume that the sample size is large.

Answer the following four parts

Part 1) What is the research hypothesis?

(a)Ha : p ≠ 0.20

(b)Ha : p > 0.20

(c)Ha : p < 14/81

(d)Ha : p < 0.20

Part 2) Report the value of the appropriate test statistic formula.

Part 3) What is the approximate p-value of your test?

(a)0.7291

(b)0.2291

(c)0.2709

(d)0.39

Part 4) What is the conclusion?

(a) Sufficient evidence to say that the new method is more accurate than the method currently used by the doctors

(b) Insufficient evidence to say that the new method is more accurate than the method currently used by the doctors

(c) Reject H0 at α = 0.05
