Answer:
$60
Explanation:
According to information on your question. We are to note that an absence or reduction of suppliers could lead to lower supply.
As in this case, the producer supply loss of $60 was incurred as some sellers dropped out of the market as a result of the tax.
Answer:
(a) Dollar price of the bond = Par value × Current price percentage
= $1,000 × 106.124%
= $1,061.24
(b) Bond's current yield:
Annual interest paid in dollars = Bond par value × Rate of interest
= $1,000 × 7.8%
= $78
= 0.0734
= 7.34%
(c) Issue price of bond is $1,000 and current maturity price is $1,061.24. Thus, bond price is greater than the par value.
(d) Current yield is the return on bond at current price. Yield to maturity is 6.588 % and current yield is 7.34%. Since the current price is more than the par value, therefore, YTM is lower than the current yield.
