Answer:

9%

Explanation:

The cost of debt is the yield to maturity of the bond. Yield to maturity is the annual rate of return that an investor receives if a bond bond is held until the maturity. it is long term return which is expressed in annual rate.

Number of payment = n = 40 payments

Coupon Payment = $1,000 x 8% /2 = $40

Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]

Yield to maturity = [ $40 + ( $1,000 - $894.87) / 40 ] / [ ($1,000 + $894.87) / 2 ] = 0.045

Yield to maturity = 4.5% semiannually = 9% annually

IgorLugansk [536]

The answer is $0.00 (third option).

Explanation:

During the year of 2018, the annual exclusion of both federal and state tax to cash gifts was up to $15,000 per individual. <em>Annual exclusion</em> means that there's up to a certain amount of money that can be gifted without being taxable. In this case, John and Joan's cash gift falls within the limit.
