Answer:

A Bond's current market value represented by B_{0} is the present value of a bond as on today. Present value of a bond is it's future cash flows in the form of coupon payments and principal repayment discounted at investor's expectation in the market also referred to as Yield to maturity(YTM).

Present value of a bond is given by the following equation,

B_{0} = \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{1} }  +\ \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{2} } \ +\ ......+\ \frac{C}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{n} } \  +\ \frac{RV}{(1\ +\ YTM)^{n} }

where C= Annual coupon payments

YTM = Yield to maturity/ cost of debt/ market rate of return on similarly priced bonds

RV = Redemption value of bond

n = number of years to maturity

<u>a. A bond's coupon rate is higher than it's yield to maturity, then the bond will sell for more than face value.</u>

Hence, if the company pays more interest than what is paid in the market on similarly priced bonds, such bonds shall sell at more than their face value.

<u>b. If a bond's coupon rate is lower than it's yield to maturity, then the bond's price will increase over it's remaining maturity.</u>

Similarly, if a bond pays lower rate of interest than the market rate of interest on similarly priced bonds, the bond shall sell at lower than it's face value and the price will increase over the remaining life of such bonds.

Patsy possesses twenty-four acres of remote, rugged land. Patsy has the right to use the property, in¬cluding extracting silver
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

C. life estate

Explanation:

A life estate is an estate interest in land that lasts for the life time of the life tenant. The holder of a life estate has a full right to possess the property during their life. A life estate is restrictive in that it prevents the beneficiary from selling the property that produces the income before the beneficiary's death. But the estate cannot continue beyond the life of the beneficiary.  A major benefit of a life estate deed is that it can be used to pass property upon the life tenant's death without it being part of the life tenant’s estate.
