Answer:

current yield 8.2089552%

YTM = 8.05%

effective annual yield = 4.92%

Explanation:

(A)

current yield = C/P

coupon payment / market price

8.8/107.2 = 0.082089552 = 8.2089552%

(B)

P = \frac{C}{2} \times\frac{1-(1+YTM/2)^{-2t} }{YTM/2} + \frac{CP}{(1+YTM/2)^{2t}}

First par being the present value of the coupon payment and second the redeem of the face value at the end of the bond.

market price 107.2

face value 100

time = 19

rate 8.8%

C = annual coupon payment 100 x 8.8% = 8.8

You solve this using a financial calculation and get the semiannual rate

YTM/2 = 0.040268160

then multiply by 2 to get the annual YTM

0.040268160  x 2 =

YTM = 0.08053632 = 8.05%

(C)

Effective Annual Yield

(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY

where:

Holding period return:

\frac{Net \: Return}{Investment} = HPR

In this case:

coupon payment + redem - investment = net return

8.8 * 19 + 100 - 107.2 = 160

160/107.2 = 1.492537313

Then

(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY

(1+1.142537313)^{\frac{365}{19\times365}} -1 = EAY

EAY = 0.049242509 = 4.9242509%

One way that the world bank might experience an adverse selection in its own lending is if __________.
Sloan [31]

Adverse selection describes situations when high-risk persons are more likely to receive insurance or when one bargaining side has important knowledge that the other does not. Our goal is to influence decision-makers, both inside and outside of government, to consider the future and adopt long-term plans.

When vendors and/or purchasers have different knowledge about a certain component of a product's quality, this is referred to as adverse selection. Thus, those who work in hazardous environments or lead high-risk lives are more likely to buy life or disability insurance, knowing that they will likely be able to use it.

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

D. Generates rents that might go to foreigners.

Explanation:

An import quota is the trade restriction imposed by the government on the quantity of the particular commodity to be imported from another country. It protects domestic producers from foreign competition. Overseas goods are generally very cheap compared to locally produced goods, which can destroy a business from the market and can make foreign companies be the leader of the market, who can control the price and quality of the product. Therefore, it very helpful to the local producer in sustaining and generating profit in the market.

The last step of the human resource planning system is to: publish a human resource inventory listing the names, ages, job title
Anastaziya [24]

The last step of the human resource planning system is to: establish a strategic plan for recruiting, selecting, training, appraising, compensating, and scheduling the labour force

Explanation:

Human Resource Planning (HRP) is the method of forecasting the company's future human resource demands and deciding how the company's existing human resources expertise can be used to meet these requirements.

The strategy employed by the company to keep a steady supply of qualified personnel while avoiding vacancies or surpluses in its workforce is human resources preparation. A successful HRP approach will mean a company's competitiveness and profitability.

The HRP process consists of four key steps:

  • These include study of current labour supply,
  • Labour demand forecasts,
  • The balance of expected job demand and supply, and
  • Support for organisational priorities.
