Curtis invests $250,000 in a city of Athens bond that pays 7 percent interest. Alternatively, Curtis could have invested the $25

0,000 in a bond recently issued by Initech, Inc. that pays 9 percent interest with similar risk as the city of Athens bond. Assume that Curtis's marginal tax rate is 24 percent. What is Curtis's after-tax rate of return on the city of Athens bond

Answer:

7%

Explanation:

Interest income if Curtis invested

250,000 x 9% = 22,500

After tax interest income = 22,500 - (22,500 x 24%)

= 17,100

After tax rate of return = 17,100/250000

0.068

Approximately 7%

Answer:

7%

Explanation:

Municipal bonds (includes both state, county and city bonds) are not subject to federal income taxes, so the after tax rate of return on the city of Athens bond is the same as its coupon rate ⇒ 7%.

In a matter of reciprocity, US securities (federal government) are not subject to state or local taxes.

c) At 39.80%  nominal WACC

Explanation:

           PV             ($85,414.57)                PV                   ($98,250.36)

                            PV ( 1%, 60, 1900)                 PV ( 1%,9,- PV(1%,51, 2700))

Should the new lease be accepted? <u> No, since the present value of new lease is more than old.</u>

b)   If the store owner decided to bargain with the mall's owner over the new lease payment, what new lease payment would make the store owner indifferent between the new and the old leases?

For this part pv of old lease should be equal to pv of new lease at t = 9

The geometric average return answers the question What was your return in an average year over a particular period?
Andreyy89

Answer: A. What was your average compounded return per year over a particular period?

Explanation:

Geometric return is calculated by the formula;

= [(1 + r1) * (1 + r2) * (1 + r3) *.... (1 + rn)] ^1/n

This allows for one to calculate the compounding effect over a period of time by showing the compounded annual growth rate which means that it tells what the average compounded return was per year in a particular period.

Vilka [71]

Answer:

There are no pressures on price to either rise or fall.

Explanation:

Equilibrium price refers to the market price at which the amount of quantity supplied is exactly equal to the amount of quantity demanded. At this point, the market supply curve and the market demand curve intersect each other.

This price would be determined by the  market forces such as demand and supply of the goods.
