Answer:

10,064 bonds

Explanation:

Given:

Amount to be raised = $2,800,000

Par value (FV) = $1,000

Maturity (nper) = 20×2 = 40 periods

Yield (rate) = 6.49 ÷ 2 = 3.245% or 0.03245

Coupon payment is 0 as it's a zero coupon bond.

Assume it's compounded semi-annually.

Calculate the price of the bond today using spreadsheet function =PV(rate,nper,pmt,FV)

Price of bond is $278.23

PV is negative as it's a cash outflow.

Number of bonds to be sold = Total amount to be raised ÷ Price of bond

                                                = 2,800,000 ÷ 278.23

                                                = 10,064 bonds

Company should sell 10,064 bonds to raise $2.8 million

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

credit rationing

Explanation:

Credit rationing is a situation in which borrowers give out a fixed amount of loan to lenders for a specified time at a rate tied to the market interest rate. In this situation, loans do not exceed a certain amount from the borrower no matter what attractive offers are given by the lenders to be able to get a larger loan amount. This is done by the borrower becasue the borrower is earning maximum profits from interest rates and also  is a means to maintain equilibrum between loan funds and loan demands.  

Cheers.
