Answer:

All except ' 7 Barrels of oil per bottle of wine'

Explanation:

Italy & Switzerland can gain from specialising : If they get more than domestic trade off ratio i.e more than 1/5 or 0.20 units oil per unit wine & more than 1/5 or 0.20 units wine per unit oil.

  • '4 Units Oil = 1 Unit Wine' implies '1 unit oil = 1/5 i.e 0.25 units Wine'. This is favourable term of trade for Switzerland & Italy, as they both get more than 1/5 or 0.20 units oil per unit wine & more than 1/5 or 0.20 units wine per unit oil
  • '1 Unit Oil = 1 Unit Wine' is also favourable term of trade for Switzerland & Italy, as they both get > 1/5 or 0.20 units oil per unit wine & > 1/5 or 0.20 units wine per unit oil
  • '2 units oil =  1 unit wine' implies ' 1 unit oil = 0.5 units wine'. It is is also favourable term of trade for Switzerland & Italy, as they both > than 1/5 or 0.20 units oil per unit wine & > 1/5 or 0.20 units wine per unit oil
  • '7 units oil per unit wine' is favourable for Italy as it receives > 1/5 or 0.20 units oil per unit wine. But it is not favourable for Switzerland as it gets 1/7 = 0.14 units wine per unit oil, i.e < 1/5 or 0.20 units wine per unit oil.

Answer:

yield to maturity = 7.06%

Explanation:

yield to maturity (YTM) is calculated using the following formula:

YTM = {C + [(FV - PV) / n]} / [(FV + PV) / 2]

  • FV = $2,000
  • PV = $1,902.14
  • C = $2,000 x 6.48% x 1/2 = $64.80
  • n = 12 x 2 = 24

YTM = {64.80 + [(2,000 - 1,902.14) / 24]} / [(2,000 + 1,902.14) / 2] = (64.80 + 4.0775) / 1,951.07 = 0.0353 or 3.53% semianually or 7.06% annually

Since the bond sells at a discount, its yield to maturity will be higher than the coupon rate.
