Answer: Encumbrance
Explanation: The commitment made by a governmental unit to buy some product for use in administration is recorded in the general fund as an encumbrance which is defined as an interest, right, burden or liability that must be carried. As such, an encumbrance ensures that there will be enough funds available for the payment of certain governmental obligations and commonly refers to restricted funds in the general fund account.
Answer:
9.78%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity can be determined using the rate formula in excel as shown below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is number of times coupon interest would be paid,which is 12 years multiplied by 2(semi-annual interest payment) i.e 24
pmt is the semi-annual interest which is $1000*8%/2=$40
pv is the current price of the bond at $876.40
fv is the face value of the bond which is $1000
=rate(24,40,-876.40,1000)=4.89%
Semi-annual yield is 4.89%
Annual yield is 4.89%*2=9.78%
The yield to maturity on these bonds is approximately 9.78%
