Coupon payments are fixed, but the percentage return that investors receive varies based on market conditions. This percentage r

eturn is referred to as the bond's yield. Yield to maturity (YTM) is the rate of return expected from a bond held until its maturity date. However, the YTM equals the expected rate of return under certain assumptions. Which of the following is one of these assumptions? The bond will not be called. The bond has an early redemption feature. Consider the case of Eades Corp. Eades Corp. has 9% annual coupon bonds that are callable and have 18 years left until maturity. The bonds have a par value of $1, 000, and their current market price is $1, 130.35. However, Eades Corp. may call the bonds in eight years at a call price of $1, 060. What are the YTM and yield to call (YTC) on Eades Corp.'s bonds? Value YTM YTC If interest rates are expected to remain constant, what is the best estimate of the remaining life left for Eades Corp.'s bonds? 8 years 10 years 13 years 18 years If Eades Corp. issued new bonds today, what coupon rate must the bonds have to be issued at par?

Stone Co. begins operations in 20X9 and reports $225,000 in income before income tax for the year. Stone's 20X9 tax depreciation
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The answer is: Stone can report $8,750 as deferred income tax liability

Explanation:

Deferred income tax liability: income tax owed by a business that is put off into future years because a difference exists between GAAP accounting (in this case book depreciation) and income tax accounting.

The deferred tax liability is based on the difference on depreciation. Since 20x9 is Stone Co.'s first year of operations, the depreciation difference in this year must equal the net future depreciation difference.

To calculate the deferred tax liability balance we take the difference in depreciation and multiply it by the future tax rate: $25,000 x 35% = $8,750.

Investment can be increased both by reducing taxes on private saving and by reducing the government budget deficit.
Romashka [77]

Answer:

1. Increasing

2. A. The elasticity of private saving with respect to the after-tax real interest rate

B. The response of private saving to changes in the government budget deficit

C. The elasticity of investment with respect to the interest rate

Explanation:

1. It is difficult to implement both of these policies at the same time because reducing taxes on private spending has the effect of <u><em>Increasing</em></u> the government budget deficit.

A Government budget deficit is acquired when the government spends more than it earns. The Government earns money from taxes and if it spends more than it receives in taxes, that will lead to a deficit. If taxes on Private spending are reduced, this will lead to less tax revenue for the government thereby increasing the Deficit.

2. All of the listed options are useful in determining which policy would be a more effective way to raise investment.

The elasticity of private saving with respect to the after-tax real interest rate refers to how much private saving changes in reaction to a change in the tax rates. This can enable one decide how much investment will be expected if the Government reduces or increases taxes.

The response of private saving to changes in the government budget deficit is also a useful factor to look at because private savings reduce when government deficits reduce.

Also how much does investment change by due to interest rates. This will be important to note in terms of Private Investment to see if it will be beneficial to use it over reducing the government budget deficit given a certain interest rate.
