Answer:

interest rate is 2.25 %

Explanation:

given data

sell bond = $715

bond matures =  15 years

redeem =  $1,000

solution

we apply here formula that is

amount = principal × (1+r)^{t}    ................1

here put value and we get

1000 = 715  × (1+r)^{15}

(1+r)^{15} = \frac{1000}{715}

solve it we get

r = 0.022617

so rate is 2.25 %

Instructions: Read the Grand View Grocers Corporation case below.
Natali5045456 [20]

<u>Solution and Explanation:</u>

The following would be the specifications of the training module for the cashiers:

1. There would be multiple modules consisting of the job responsibilities as refresher courses and at the same time, the new market conditions and additional job related things that they must be doing in the near future would be the other modules.

2. The key areas that the multi module training program would be focussing on would be, customer relationship training, system and data maintenance training, documentation and accounting module

3. The training intervention would be preferably on job and alongside there would be a mentor/coach allotted to the cashiers who are experts in the field preferably store managers and functional experts. For the system related modules, they would be having simulation based modules. Only during the non rush-hours there would be offline training and update sessions with respect to the progress made on their training and the productivity improvement they have achieved over the past week.

The incentives associated with the productivity improvement would be translated into incentivising the cashiers to take up the training modules. The weekly update on the productivity improvement and the progress in their training would inturn make them competitive in nature. While coming to why such distribution has been done with respect to the modules, essentially if we look at the job of the cashiers, it’s a round the clock job and they would lose out on precious working hours if the training is done on an offline basis.

The simulations would definitely help understand the process but the on job training would be the one that is standing out, as they would be continuing their task and at the same time, the result is right in front on them to experience and therefore the distribution of the modules to not stress them out and at the same time not losing out on their time as well.

If a bond's yield to maturity is less than its coupon rate, the bond will sell at a _____, and increases in market interest rate
KiRa [710]

If a bond's yield to maturity is less than its coupon rate, the bond will sell at a premium, and increases in market interest rates will decrease this premium.

If the bond's coupon rate is lower than YTM, the bond will be sold at a discounted price. If the bond's coupon rate is higher than its YTM, the bond is sold at a premium. If the bond's coupon equals YTM, the bond is sold at face value.

If the coupon is higher than the yield, investors should expect the bond's capital value to fall over the remaining term. Therefore, the price of the bond must be higher than its face value. If the bond's coupon rate is lower than its lifetime, the bond's price increases over its remaining lifetime.

If the interest rate falls below the coupon, the bond can be sold at a premium above face value. Interest rates on bonds vary according to prevailing interest rates and perceived risks of the issuer. Suppose he has a 10-year bond for $5,000 with a 5% coupon.
