Answer:

Ans. The after-tax rate of return on the municipal bonds is 3% and the after tax rate of return on the corporate bonds is 4.5%

Explanation:

Hi, the formula to find the after-tax rate of return of any taxable income is as follows.

r(AfterTax)=r(BeforeTax)*(1-Taxes)

Therefore, in the case of the municipal bond.

r(AfterTax)=0.04*(1-0.25)=0.03

So, the after-tax rate of return of the municipal bond is 3%.

And for the corporate bond is.

r(AfterTax)=0.06*(1-0.25)=0.045

And the after-tax rate of return of the corporate bond is 4.5%.

It means that taxes on municipal bonds are:

Taxes= Return(BeforeTax)-Return(AfterTax)

In the case of municipal taxes:

Taxes=0.04-0.03=0.01

1% taxes for municipal bonds

In the case of corporate taxes:

Taxes=0.06-0.045=0.015

1.5% taxes for corporate bonds

Best of luck.

Suppose you have $1,500 and plan to purchase a 5-year certificate of deposit (CD) that pays 3.5% interest, compounded annually.
ryzh [129]

Answer:

$ 1,781.53  

Explanation:

The future value of the 5-year CD can be determined by using the future value formula stated below:

FV=PV*(1+r)^n

FV is the future value which is expected future amount after 5 years

PV is the initial amount used in purchasing the CD i.e $1500

r is the rate of return on the CD on an annual basis which is 3.5%

n is the number of years the investment would last which is 5 years

FV=$1500*(1+3.5%)^5

FV=$1500*1.187686306

FV=$ 1,781.53
