When a person has a marginal tax bracket of 35%, their taxable equivalent yield to a municipal bond is 6%.

<h3>What is the taxable equivalent yield?</h3>

It can be found by the formula:

= Municipal bond / ( 1 + tax rate)

Solving gives:

= 3.9% / ( 1 - 35%)

= 3.9% / 0.65

= 6%

In conclusion, a 6% return would be an appropriate taxable equivalent yield.
