Answer:

the YTM is 9.38 %.

Explanation:

Bond Prices in most countries is expressed per $100. We shall use this as the Price for the bond in question.

Then the Yield to Maturity (YTM), r of the Bond can be determined as follows

Pv = - $103

pmt = ($100 × 9.80) ÷ 2 = $4.90

p/yr = 2

n = (14 - 2) × 2 = 24

Fv = $100

r = ?

Using a Financial Calculator,  the Yield to Maturity (YTM), r is 9.38 %

natita [175]

Answer:

there is an increase in taxes of $52,192

Explanation:

The computation of the net payment or saving is shown below:

Given that

Book value = $450,000

Sale value = $636,400

since the sales value is more than the book value so here the capital profit is there

Therefore capital profit would be

= $636,400 - $450,000

= $186,400

Now tax would be

= $186,400 × 28%

= $52,192

So there is an increase in taxes of $52,192

Fill in the blanks to complete the passage regarding the development of illegal markets in response to price ceilings. – are ill
djverab [1.8K]

Black markets are illegal markets that emerge in response to price controls. A few buyers are able to obtain the good at the open-market price; the rest must resort to illegal means. The additional demand is met by underground suppliers selling at much higher prices.

The government does not support the black market or any of their actions with getting items and selling them in other forms. Those who are in demand of a good when they have a hard time in getting it may purchase it illegally at a higher price just so they can receive that good. When there is an exchange of goods in the black market, these items are usually prohibited by the government and therefor illegally being sold.

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

true                    

Explanation:

The transfer payment comprises of both a donor as well as a receiver, with the sender giving up something that is of worth and receiving anything in return, unlike the swap agreement that equally benefits all the parties concerned.

Transfer payments cover Social Security, Medicaid, unemployment compensation, social programs and assistance. They should not be added in GDP, as they are not payments for goods or services, but rather ways to distribute money for social purposes.
