You are trying to decide between a par value corporate bond carrying a coupon rate of 6.25% per year and a par value municipal b
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

D.

Municipal bond because the equivalent taxable yield is 6.6%

Explanation:

we should make the important difference that municipal bonds are tax free while corporate bonds don't.

Therefore we should solve for the after tax rate fo the corporate bond:

pretax (1-t) = after tax -rate\\0.0625(1-0.28) = 0.0625(0.72) = 0.045

The corporate bond as a yield of 4.5% after taxes which is lower than the municipal bond. This make it more attractive

We can also solve for the pre-tax rate of the municipal bond:

pretax(1-t) = after tax - rate\\pretax (1-0.28) = 0.0475\\pretax = 0.0475/0.72 = 0,065972 = 0.066

the municipal bonds would be equivalent to a 6.6% corporate bonds.

This makes option D correct.
