Answer:

R = 7% x $1,000 = $70

Po= R/2(1-(1+Kd/m)-nm/Kd/m + FV/(1+Kd/m)nm

Po = 70/2(1-(1+0.0682/2)-13.5x2/0.0682/2 + 1,000/(1+0.0682/2)13.5x2

Po = 35(1-(1+0.0341)-27/0.0341 + 1000/(1+0.0341)27

Po = 35(17.4663) + 1,000/2.4728

Po = $611.3205 + $404.40

Po = $1,015.72

The correct answer is C

Explanation:

The current price of a bond is equal to present value of coupon plus the present value of face value of the bond. The bond pays semi-annual interest, thus, we will divide the coupon by 2 and then determine the present value. The bond yield will also be divided by 2.

Po = Current price of the bond, R = Coupon, Kd = Bond yield, FV = Face value, n = Bond maturity and m = No of times coupon is paid in a year

The graph shows unemployment rates in the United States in recent years.
S_A_V [24]

The correct answer is C. The United States suffered an economic downturn starting in 2009.

Explanation:

The graph shows the percentage of unemployment in the U.S. from 2006 to 2012. In this, you can see the unemployment rate was between 4% and 5% during 2006, 2007 and 2008; however, after this year the rate suddenly increased. Indeed in 2009, the rate was 6% and in 2010 it was 10%, which is evidently higher than in previous years. This situation suggests there was an economic recession or downturn that began in 2009 and continued during the following years, this explains why the number of unemployed people increased as an economical recession usually leads to fewer jobs. Thus, the most accurate statement is "The United States suffered an economic downturn starting in 2009".

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

16.54%

Explanation:

We have to applied the rate formula that is shown in the attachment.

The NPER shows the time period.  

Given that,  

Present value = $2,500

Future value or Face value = $5,375

PMT = $0

NPER = 6 years - 1 years = 5 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER,PMT,-PV,FV,type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after solving this,  the annual rate of return is implied is 16.54%
