Answer:
Blume's formula combines the geometric and arithmetic means of an asset to be able to predict its returns in a given period.
The formula is;
<em>= Geometric Mean*(T-1)/(N-1) + Arithmatic Mean *(N-T)/(N-1)
</em>
Where;
T = Period in question
N = Total period
10 years
= 8.3%*(10-1)/(90-1) + 10.3%*(90-10)/(90-1)
= 10.1 %
25 years
= 8.3%*(25-1)/(90-1) + 10.3%*(90-25)/(90-1)
= 9.76%
30 years
= 8.3%*(30-1)/(90-1) + 10.3%*(90-30)/(90-1)
= 9.65%

Answer:
It should raise up to 56 percent of taxes
Explanation:
The question is missing an important information. 'The bond is currently selling at an asking price of 101.25' In this part there should have been a date at which date the bond was selling at 101.25.
Nevertheless, I will provide with the calculation, if you find out the date, just plug in the value in it and you will get the answer.
The bond price mentioned is $ 101.25 percent of par, which would be $ 1012.5. Since, it is asking for price at May 1st then you know that it has been 89 days since the last semi-annual coupon was paid ( February 1st (28) + March (31) + April (30) = 89 days.
The missing date (from the question) will be divided by 89 days. The answer will be added to $1012.5.
