You are considering investing in a GM bond with 7 years to maturity. The face value of the bond is $1,000. The coupon rate is 6%
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

Price of bond is = $ 1057

Explanation:

As we know that;

Price of bond = C * [1-(1+r)∧-n] / r  +   F / (1+r)∧n

where C = periodic coupon payment = 1000 * 6%= 60

         F = Face value of bond = 1000

        r = yield to maturity = 5% = 0.05

        n = number of periods till maturity = 7 years

         Putting values;

              = 60 * [ 1- (1+ 0.05)∧-7 ]/ 0.05  +  1000 / (1+0.05)∧7

              = 60 * (0.2893 / 0.05) +   710

             =  60 * 5.786 +  710

              =  347.16 +710

              =  1057

Consider a corrupt provincial government in which each housing inspector examines two newly built structures each week. All the
Anarel [89]

Answer:

a) If bribes cost $1,000 each, how much will a housing inspector make each year in bribes?

So, if the corrupt inspector approves two newly built structures each week, ti means that he is bribed twice per week. There are 52 weeks in a year, so he gets a total of 104 bribes (52 x 2). If each bribe costs $1,000, then he makes a total of: $1,000 x 104 = $104,000 in bribes per year.

c) Corrupt officials may have an incentive to reduce the provision of government services to help line their own pockets.

This statement is true. Corrupt officials will want to have private companies they can obtain bribes from provide government services. It increases the probability of them making money from bribes.

d) What if reducing the number of inspectors from 20 to 10 only increased the equilibrium bribe from $1,000 to $1,500?

Reducing the number of inspectors in hafl means that each inspector now gets twice the bribes. Because the equilibrium price did not double as did the quantity of bribes, each inspector will make less money than expected, but they will still the incentive to collect all the four bribes per week.
