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%

You are an economic advisor to the president. You observe a decrease in gross investment. Assume the economy was operating at th
melomori [17]

Answer:

a. Increase in Net Exports, Increase in AD, real GDP will stay same

b. Excess Demand

c. Appropriate Contractionary Fiscal Policy : decrease tax & or increase government expenditure

d. Actions smooth business cycle by brining actual real GDP towards full employment

Explanation:

Aggregate Demand is the total value of goods & services all the sectors of an economy are planning to buy during a given period of time

Aggregate Demand [AD] = Consumption [C] + Investment [I] + Government Expenditure [G] + Net Exports [NX = Exports (X) - Imports (M)]

Aggregate Demand > Aggregate Supply at full employment level is Excess Demand. Aggregate Demand < Aggregate Supply at full employment level is Deficit Demand

Decrease in Investment leads to fall in Aggregate Demand. It creates Deficit Demand & decreases real GDP. It can be corrected through demand expansionary fiscal policy of decreasing taxes & increasing govt. expenditure.

Increase in exports leads to increase in net exports & in turn increase in aggregate demand. This causes Excess demand problem & real GDP will remain same (economy already at full equilibrium, GDP cant be increased more). Appropriate Fiscal Policy [Contractionary Fiscal Policy] includes decreasing taxes & or increasing govt. purchase.

These actions will smooth out business cycle by bringing actual real GDP back to full employment level.

Seth is a competitive body builder. He says he has ti have his 12 oz package of protein to " feed his muscles" every day. On the
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

1. It is perfectly inelastic

Explanation:

Elasticity of Demand is the responsiveness of demand to price change.

  • Elastic Demand > 1 ; implies demand changes proportionately more than price change
  • Inelastic Demand < 1 ; implies demand changes proportionately less than price change
  • Perfectly Elastic Demand  = ∞ ; implies demand changes infinitely to price change, so the prices are constant
  • Perfectly Inelastic Demand = 0 ; implies demand doesn't respond to price change, so quantity demanded is constant

Given : Seth body builder needs 12oz protein packet to 'feed his muscles' depicts that it is a necessity good to him. Being a necessity good, it would be demanded by Seth irrespective of price.

So, the demand is perfectly inelastic.

"An investor buys $10,000 of a "regulated" mutual fund investing solely in municipal securities. Which statement is TRUE regardi
kogti [31]

Answer: D. The investor has no tax liability on distributions received, and the investment company has no tax liability on retained income

Explanation:

Municipal Securities are exempt of Federal taxes and this is what makes them most attractive. An investor in a mutual fund which invests solely in municipal securities will therefore not have any tax liability because their returns would be based on securities that are federally tax exempt. The same goes for any income the Mutual fund intends to retain.
