Answer:
Current yield is 6.17%
<em>YTD is 5.43%</em>
<em>YTC is 4.26%</em>
Explanation:
Tenor: 15 years
-> number of payment (NPer) is 30 (= 15 years * 2 for semiannual)
Coupon rate: 7.4%
- > semiannual payments (PMT): $37 = ($1000*7.4%/2)
Future value (FV): $1000
Present value (PV): $1200
Current yield = annual coupon/ current price = $37*2/$1200 = 6.17%
<u>Extra: </u>
We use excel to calculate yield to date (YTD) or nominal yield:
= Rate(Nper, PMT, - PV,FV) = Rate(30,37,-1200,1000) = 2.717% semiannual
-> annual rate is 5.43%
The bond issue is callable in 5 years at a call price of $1,074, then FV is $1074
Yield to call = rate(10,37,-1200,1074) = 2.13% semiannual
-> annual rate is 4.26%
50%
Explanation:
A. Safety belts are most effective when used properly. Each vehicle made today has a lap/shoulder belt combination. It should go over the shoulder and across the center of the chest. Lap belts should fit comfortably across the hips, not over the stomach. Don't make slack in your seat belt and don't tuck a shoulder belt under your arm or behind your back for any reason, including to defeat the seat belt alarm.
B. Seat belt has saved 14,668 people in 2016 in vehicle accidents.
C. The national use rate of lap and shoulder belt in America is 90.1 percent.
The semi annual interest payment on a $10,000 5% bond would be $250
