Answer:

$1,032.01

Explanation:

Given:

Face value of bond (FV) = $1,000

Coupon rate = 6% annual rate or 6% / 2 = 3% semi-annual rate

Coupon payment (pmt) = 0.03 × $1,000

                            = $30

Rate = 5.5% annually or 5.5 / 2 = 2.75%

Time period (nper) = 8 × 2 = 16 periods

Current value of bond is present value of bond which can be computed using spreadsheet function =PV(rate,nper,pmt,FV)

So, present value of bond is $1,032.01.

PV is negative as it's cash outflow.

rodikova [14]

Answer:

Bill Gates said, "Develop your people to do their jobs better than you can. Transfer your skills to them. This is exciting but it can be threatening to a manager who worries that he is training his replacement. Smart managers like to see their employees increase their responsibilities because it frees the managers to tackle new or undone tasks."

Explanation:

Bill Gates is an American computer pioneer and philanthropist. He is a co-founder of Microsoft, where he was the chairman of the board. He has now left the day-to-day work at Microsoft to work full-time within the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
