Answer:
The statement is False
Explanation:
Generally speaking, the statement is false considering the demand and supply curve. In this curve, when there is increase in demand, its implies that the consumers of the notebook still derived satisfaction on it and as such the producer of the notebook produces more and supply to the market will increase so that equilibrium point will be achieved. Until when law of diminishing return set in, and the people are not deriving satisfaction again, that is when the product may not be readily available.
Again if the supply curve is vertical, that is the producer is producing and supplying at fixed rate without putting into consideration the demands in the market, there will not be corresponding increase in supply with demands which can make statement to true.

Answer:
<em>$111.11 or 111.11% of face value</em>
Explanation:
Assuming the face value of $100 for all bonds (without loss of generality)
If the two year coupon bond is repackaged as a one year zero coupon bond paying $12 after one year and another two year bond paying $112 after 2 years, the price of the two zero coupon bonds are given as
Price of one year Zero coupon bond = 12/1.05 = $11.43 (one year ZCB has YTM of 5%)
Price of two year Zero coupon bond = 112/1.06^2 = $99.68 (two year ZCB has YTM of 6%)
So, one can sell the repackaged bonds at a price = $11.43+ $99.68 = $111.11 or 111.11% of face value
