Answer:

the annual payment for the second annuity is $2,130 paid at end of every year

Explanation:

We have following information for 1st annuity:

Rate: 6.5%

Payment (PMT): -$2,000, paid at beginning of every year

Tenor (Nper): 20 years

We use excel to calculate the present value of annuity = PV(rate,Nper,PMT,,1)

=PV(6.5%,20,-2000,,1) = $23,469

Then we calculate the payment for 2nd annuity = PMT(rate,Nper,PV,,0)

=PMT(6.5%,20,23469,,0) = -$2,130

You are trying to decide between a par value corporate bond carrying a coupon rate of 6.25% per year and a par value municipal b
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

D.

Municipal bond because the equivalent taxable yield is 6.6%

Explanation:

we should make the important difference that municipal bonds are tax free while corporate bonds don't.

Therefore we should solve for the after tax rate fo the corporate bond:

pretax (1-t) = after tax -rate\\0.0625(1-0.28) = 0.0625(0.72) = 0.045

The corporate bond as a yield of 4.5% after taxes which is lower than the municipal bond. This make it more attractive

We can also solve for the pre-tax rate of the municipal bond:

pretax(1-t) = after tax - rate\\pretax (1-0.28) = 0.0475\\pretax = 0.0475/0.72 = 0,065972 = 0.066

the municipal bonds would be equivalent to a 6.6% corporate bonds.

This makes option D correct.

Explain why, in seeking to avoid financial crisis, the government's role as regulator of the financial system does not imply it
GREYUIT [131]

Answer: Market Efficiency

Explanation:

It is important that the Government as a regulator should not get involved in acts that would protect individual institutions from failure because that would defeat the whole purpose of a competitive industry.

If a government is known to directly involve itself in the protection of institutions from failure, efficiency in institutions may become low because of the lack of fear of failure as companies believe that should they run into bad times, they will simply be bailed out by the government so there is no need for them to maintain a competitive edge.

This can lead to a situation where we have companies performing sub optimally in an economy which can only act to reduce the Economic growth of a country.

Government institutions usually have such backing and in a lot of countries are prone to failure. Look at the Bamangwato Concessions Limited (BCL) mine in Botswana for instance that kept failing and refusing to improve it's efficiency because they could always run back to the government for a bailout. Their position eventually became so untenable that bankruptcy was the only option.
