Answer:

At tax rate 32.1%, investors be indifferent between the two bonds

Explanation:

Yield after tax of corporate bond = 8.1% * (1- tax rate)

Investors would be indifferent between the two bonds when Yield after tax of corporate bond equals to yield of tax free municipal bonds.

8.1% * (1- tax rate) = 5.5%

⇔ 8.1% - 8.1% * tax rate = 5.5%

Tax rate = (8.1% - 5.5%)/8.1% = 32.1%

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Mr Crane's total return on the bond investment was 5.35%

Explanation:

The return on a bond is also known as it yield to maturity (YTM). In order to find a bonds YTM we need to know its present value, future value, coupon payments and number of years. In this case the bond's present value is 1,055 because it was bought at this price, it's future value is 980 because it was sold for 980, its number of years was 5 as it was held for 5 years and its coupon payment was  (0.07*1000)=70. Now in order to compute return or ytm we need to put all these values in a financial calculator and compute I

PV= -1055

FV= 980

PMT= 70

N=5

Compute I=5.35

The return on the bond investment was 5.35%

Most broker-client relationships are single agencies, since that way the broker should pursuit his/her client's best interest.
