Answer:

Explanation:

A point on U=800 is (5, 16)

From BL:

400*F+100D =4000

400*5+100*16 =3600<4000

Therefore u = 800 affordable.

U= 1200

F = 1200/10D

If D = 20

F = 1200/200

=6

Now from BL:

400*6+100*20= 2400+2000=4400>4000

Not affordable.

Maximization:

L = 10DF+ʎ[100*D+400*F – 4000]

Differentiating wrt D and F:

dL/dD = 10F + ʎ*100

dL/dF = 10D +ʎ*400

equating to zero;                      

ʎ= -F/10

ʎ=-D/40

equating the two:

F/10=D/40

D = 4F

From BL:

400*F+100*D = 4000

400F+100*4F = 4000

800F = 4000

F = 5

D = 4*5=20

Answer:

The rate of return is 7.20%

Explanation:

a)  Assuming you purchased the bond for $880, in order to calculate the rate of return you earn if you held the bond for 25 years until it matured with a value $5,000 we would have to calculate the following formula:

Rate of Return = [FV/PV]1/n - 1

Rate of Return= [$5,000 / $880]1/25 - 1 = [5.6818]0.04 - 1 = 1.0720 - 1 = 0.0720, or 7.20%

Rate of Return= [5.6818]0.04 - 1

Rate of Return= 1.0720 - 1

Rate of Return=0.0720, or 7.20%

The rate of return is 7.20%
