The yield to maturity on this bond according to the trial-and-error approach is 9.66 percent.

According to the statement

we have given that the Uan zhang bought a 10-year bond that pays 8. 25 percent interest per 6 months.

And we have to find that the yield to maturity on this bond.

So, For this purpose,

The amount given is $911. 10.

Years to maturity = n = 10

Coupon rate = C = 8.25%

Semiannual coupon = $1,000 × (0.0825/2) = $41.25

Yield to maturity = i

Present value of bond = PB = $911.10

Use the trial-and-error approach to solve for YTM. Since the bond is selling at a discount, we know that the yield to maturity is higher than the coupon rate.

Try YTM = 9.4%:

= $522.90 + 391.54 ≅ $914.43

The YTM is approximately 9.66 percent. Using a financial calculator provided an exact YTM of 9.656 percent (2 × 4.828%).

So, The yield to maturity on this bond according to the trial-and-error approach is 9.66 percent.

yuri has a rope 12 meters long. he cuts it into pieces that are each 2 meters long. what fraction of the rope is one piece
Lelu [443]
So the numerator of your fraction (the top number) is the amount that was cut. The denominator (the bottom number) is the total amount of rope. So, your fraction would be 2/12. You can still simplify that by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2 and end up with 1/6. Does that make sense? If you need any more help, go ahead and message me :)

goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

Notice that the distance is in the y-axis, and the time in the x-axis.

First, let's see what happens in the four points:

A) You can see that in point A, the steepness of the line increases, this means that the speed of the runner increases in that point.

B) In this point, the runner that increased his/her speed in point A crosses the graph of another runner, this means that they are at the same distance to the end and at the same time.

C) In this point again two runners are at the same distance and the same time, and we also can see that the runer that increased his/her speed at point A, now has reached the end of the race (because his line stops increasing, wich means that he/she already finished the race)

D) The las runner finishes the race at point D.

Then the first runner that finishes the race is the one with the shorter graph (shorter graph means that he ran for less time than the others, wich means that he/she finished first)

The last runner is the one that finished at point D,

The middle one finishes right after the point C.
