A rectangular crate has the dimensions of 32.1 inches by 28.2 inches by 1 foot.

Bond Yields and Rates of Return A 30-year, 10% semiannual coupon bond with a par value of $1,000 may be called in 4 years at a c

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The bond's yield to maturity is 9.45% using Excel to get exact values, and 9.59% using approximate method.

Explanation:

We can calculate is using 2 ways, using Excel to get the exact percentage or with approximate methods, calculating the semi-annual Yield to Maturity using the following formula

$YTM_{sm} =\cfrac{PMT+\cfrac{FV-PV}n}{\cfrac{FV+PV}2}$

And from there we can calculate the Yield to Maturity just by multiplying the semi-annual one by 2.

Identifying the given information.

We have a period of 30 years, so for the semiannual bond we have $n=2(30) = 60$ periods.

The face value, FV, is $1000, the coupon rate is 0.10, thus we can use them to find the interest per period PMT.

$PMT=0.10 \times \cfrac{1000}{2}\\PMT=\$ 50$

The current price of the bond, PV is $1050.

Replacing the values on the semiannual Yield to Maturity

$YTM_{sm} =\cfrac{PMT+\cfrac{FV-PV}n}{\cfrac{FV+PV}2}$

$YTM_{sm}=\cfrac{50+\cfrac{1000-1050}{60}}{\cfrac{1000+1050}{2}}$

Simplifying we get

$YTM_{sm}=4.797\%\\$

Finding the Yield to Maturity.

We can just multiply by 2 to get the Yield to Maturity from our previous result and rounding it to 2 decimals we get

$YTM = 2 YTM_{sm}\\YTM=9.59\%$

Alternatively we can use Excel and write:

RATE(n, PMT, PV, FV)*2

That is

RATE(60,50,1050,1000)*2

And we will get the exact Yield to maturity 9.49%

When assuming nonconstant growth in dividends, to avoid the problem of having to forecast and discount an infinite number of div

Sergio039 [100]

To avoid the problem of having to forecast and discount an infinite number of dividends, we must require that the dividends start to grow at a fixed rate in the future.

<h3>What are dividends?</h3>

Dividends are payments made by a company to its shareholders. This money is taken from the total profits made by the company. The remaining money after the payment of dividends goes to re-investment in order to grow the company.

Therefore, we can confirm that in order to avoid the problems presented in the question regarding dividends, we must require that they grow at a fixed rate in the future.
