Answer:

She should invest in a State of New York bond.

Explanation:

The return on a State of New York bond is 9.4%.

The return on a Surething Inc. bond is 12%.

Fergie has a 30% marginal tax.

A state tax will not be taxed. However, a corporate bond will be taxed.

After tax return will be

= 12\% -\ (12\% \times\ 30\%)

= 0.12\ -\ (0.12\ \times\ 0.3)

= 0.12 - 0.036

= 0.084

So, the return after tax will be 8.4%.

This is lower than the return on the state bond.

So, Fergie will invest in State bond.

= current period productivity - previous period productivity / previous period productivity

= 4-3.833/3.833

= 0.167/3.833

= 0.04356 × 100
