Answer:
The information about old and current bond prices is missing, but the answer is probably the same with or without it. The reason why bonds' prices increase or decrease even if their credit rating remains the same is that market rates change. For example, if the market interest rates decrease, the price of bonds will increase. But on the other hand, if the market rates increase, the price of bonds will decrease. Market rates give are determined by averaging the returns of similar investments, and if an investor believes that he could earn more money somewhere else, he will sell the bonds and invest in that other security.
Answer:
Currently (assuming a 2020 tax schedule), Campbells tax liability = $47,367.50 + [35% x ($438,000 - $207,350)] = $128,095
municipal bonds are not taxed by the federal government, so Campbell will not pay any taxes on the interests earned on the State of New York bonds.
if he earns an additional $16,900, then his tax liability will be:
$47,367.50 + [35% x ($454,900 - $207,350)] = $134,010
his marginal tax rate = 35%

Answer:
2.2
Explanation:
In this question, we apply the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) formula which is shown below
Expected rate of return = Risk-free rate of return + Beta × (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return)
18% = 7% + Beta × 5%
18% - 7% = Beta × 5%
11% = Beta × 5%
So, the beta would be
= 2.2
The (Market rate of return - Risk-free rate of return) is also known as market risk premium and the same has applied.
