Answer:
Interest rates and bond prices vary inversely
Explanation:
The relationship between interest rate and bond prices can be seen in the bond pricing formula. Given a series of coupon payments (C) paid over the lifetime (ranging from "1" through "i" to "n") of a bond, and given that the bond will repay the principal investment (F) at maturity, the price of the bond is

where "r" is the interest rate.
As seen in the formula, the price of the bond (P) is inversely related to the interest rate (r).
Option A is incorrect because interest rates and bond prices vary indirectly, not directly. Option C is incorrect because interest rates and bond prices are related. Option D is incorrect because vary inversely irrespective of inflation and recession.
Answer:
$30,000
Explanation:
Usually, patents do not have a salvage value. If the useful life is 16 years, the amortization rate will be 1/16 x 100
=0.0625 x 100
=6.25%
Before January 2017, the trademark had been amortized for four years ( 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016.)
Amortization per year = 6.25% x $400,000
=0.0625 x $400,000
=$25,000 per year: Four year amortization would be
=$25,000 x 4
=$100,000
The Book value as of January 2017 will be
=$400,000 -$100,000
=$300,000
add legal fee
=$300,000 + $60,000
=$360,000
remaining useful life = 16 -4 years = 12 years.
new depreciation rate = 1/12 x 100
=0.08333
Depreciation amount for 2017
= 0.08333 x $360,000
=$30,000
