I inferred you are to the 2017 TEDx talk "Short-termism is killing us: it's time for Long path" by Ari Wallach.
<u>Explanation:</u>
According to Wallach, he refers to short-termism as focusing on short-term results at the expense of long-term interests.
In his words, short-termism is a problem because;
- "it prevents the CEO from buying really expensive safety equipment"
- "prevents teachers from spending quality one-on-one time with their students".
So in summary what Wallach is saying is that short-termism prevents futuristic thinking.
Answer: 6.5%
The yield to maturity is 6.496% (approximated to 6.5% to nearest tenth)
Explanation:
Using the formula (semi annually YTM)
YTM = C + (fv - pv) /t ÷ (fv + pv)/2
C= coupon rate = 7%(1000)= $70
fv = face value = $1,000
pv = price value = $1,032
t = Time to maturity in years = 8years
C + (fv - pv) /t = 70 + (1000–1032)/8
= 70 – (32 /8) =66
(fv + pv) /2 = (1000 + 1032) /2
= 2032 / 2
= 1016
YTM = 66 / 1016
YTM = 0.06496
In % = (6496 / 100,000) × 100
= 6.496%
Approximately.... 6.5%
