Answer:

a tax-rate for 25% will make the investor be indifferent between there two bonds

Explanation:

The Municipal bonds are tax free. Therefore, do not pay the income tax for their interest.

We need to set and equation for the net yield of the bonds after tax, which equal the municipal bond:

debt after tax:

cost of debt ( 1 - t) = after-tax

we want to equalize 8% pre-tax with 6% after-tax

0.08 ( 1 - t ) = 0.06

t = 1 - 0.06/0.08 = 1 - 0.75 = 0.25 = 25%

a tax-rate for 25% will make the investor be indifferent between there two bonds

If we have eight decisions to make and 3 choices for each decision, how can we represent the number of potential outcomes
AveGali [126]

We can represent the number of potential outcomes by 3 to the power 8.

<h3>What is permutation and combination?</h3>

Permutation relates to the act of arranging all the members of a set into some sequence or order.

We can assume, for two choices, we have one decision. This can be represented as, since we have eight decisions,

Representation of the potential outcomes are:

= 3^1 + 3^1 + 3^1 + 3^1 + 3^1 + 3^1 + 3^1 + 3^1

= 3^8

= 6,561
