Answer: False

Explanation:

Bond Price Volatility does indeed have a positive relationship with term to Maturity because the longer the term to Maturity, the more the bond can be affected by interest rates which will lead to price changes.

However, Bond Price Volatility has an Indirect relationship with Coupon rates. The higher the Coupon rate, the lower the volatility because interest rates affect bonds that are paying lower coupons more than they do high ones. Having a higher coupon bond means that price does not change as much due to interest rates.

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

a. The net pay is correct.

Explanation:

Suppose the missing part of the question which is the gross pay and the federal tax is 1020.00 and 107.00 respectively.

Then, Social Security tax 6.2% of the gross pay = $\dfrac{6.2}{100}\times 1020$

Social Security tax 6.2% of the gross pay = 0.062 × 1020

Social Security tax 6.2% of the gross pay = $63.24

the Medicare tax is 1.45% of gross pay = $\dfrac{1.45}{100} \times 1020$

the Medicare tax is 1.45% of gross pay = 0.0145 × 1020

the Medicare tax is 1.45% of gross pay = $14.79

the state tax is 19% of federal tax = $\dfrac{19}{100} \times 107$

the state tax is 19% of federal tax = 0.19 × 107

the state tax is 19% of federal tax = $20.33

Hence, to determine if Juanita's net pay is correct, we have the summation of all our estimated figures minus the gross pay.

i.e

Juanita's net pay = $1020 - $(107 + 63.24 + 14.79 + 20.33)

Juanita's net pay = $1020 - 205.36

Juanita's net pay = $814.64
