Answer:

  • After-Tax return on Municipal Bond = 7%
  • After-Tax Return on Corporate Bond = 6.72%

Explanation:

The main advantage that Municipal Bonds usually carry with them is that they are tax-exempt. As no taxes are paid on them, there is no need to calculate an after-tax return because it is the same as a pre-tax return.

After-Tax return on Municipal Bond = 7%

The Corporate Bond is subject to tax based on the holder's tax bracket.

After-Tax Return on Corporate Bond = 8.4 % * ( 1 - 20%)

After-Tax Return on Corporate Bond = 6.72%

<em>Considering taxes, the Municipal Bond is better. </em>

Find the effective interest rate per payment period for an interest rate of 9% compounded monthly for each of the given payment
Temka [501]

Answer:

a. 0.75% per month

b. 2.25% per quarter

c. 4.5% semi- annually

d. 9% yearly

Explanation:

a. Computing the effective interest rate per payment period for the payment schedule which is monthly:

Effective rate (monthly) = Nominal rate (r) / Compounded monthly (m)

where

r is 9%

m is 12

Putting the values above:

= 9% / 12

= 0.75% per month

b. Computing the effective interest rate per payment period for the payment schedule which is quarterly:

Effective rate (quarterly) = Nominal rate (r) / Compounded quarterly (m)

where

r is 9%

m is 4

Putting the values above:

= 9% / 4

= 2.25% per quarter

c. Computing the effective interest rate per payment period for the payment schedule which is semi- annually:

Effective rate (semi- annually) = Nominal rate (r) / Compounded quarterly (m)

where

r is 9%

m is 2 (every 6 months)

Putting the values above:

= 9% / 2

= 4.5% semi- annually

d. Computing the effective interest rate per payment period for the payment schedule which is annually:

Effective rate (annually) = Nominal rate (r) / Compounded yearly (m)

where

r is 9%

m is 1 (end of the year)

Putting the values above:

= 9% / 1

= 9% yearly
