Answer: Volkswagen invested in Russia because Russia’s economy was growing rapidly and living standards were rising while the level of car ownership was still low. This made Volkswagen believe that the demand for cars would grow quickly.
FDI was preferable because Volkswagen’s competitors were also investing in production facilities in Russia, so they felt that they needed to invest directly to be on the same levels as their rivals.

Answer:
discount yield=7.17%
bond equivalent yield=7.34%
effective annual yield =7.64%
Explanation:
Discount yield =discount /face value*360/t
where t is the number of days to maturity
discount =face value -issue price
discount=100-97.63
discount=2.37
discount yield =2.37/100*360/119
discount yield=7.17%
bond equivalent yield=(1+periodic yield)^360/t-1
periodic yield =discount/face value=2.37/100=2.37%
bond equivalent yield =(1+2.37%)^(360/119)-1
bond equivalent yield=7.34%
effective annual yield=(1+HPY)^365/t-1
Holding period yield (HPY)=discount/price=2.37/97.63
HPY=2.43%
effective annual yield=(1+2.43%)^(365/119)-1
effective annual yield =7.64%
