Answer:Multi national company
Explanation:
In this problem we are given the mean of $1100, SD of $150 and x equal to $900. In this case, we need to use the z-score table to answer the problem:
z = (x-mean)/sd
z = (900-1100)/150
z = -1.33
from z-table, the probability at the left of z= -1.33 is equal to 9.18%
Answer:
$1,174.75
Explanation:
The computation of the invoice price of the bond is shown below:
As we know that
Invoice Price of Bond = Ask Price of Bond + Accrued interest
where,

So,
Invoice Price of Bond is
= $1,160.00 + $14.75
= $1,174.75
