Assume the following: The real risk-free rate, r*, is expected to remain constant at 3%. Inflation is expected to be 3% next yea

r and then to be constant at 2% a year thereafter. The maturity risk premium is zero. Given this information, which of the following statements is CORRECT? The yield curve for U.S. Treasury securities will be upward sloping.
A 5-year corporate bond must have a lower yield than a 5-year Treasury security.

A 5-year corporate bond must have a lower yield than a 7-year Treasury security.

The real risk-free rate cannot be constant if inflation is not expected to remain constant.

This problem assumed a zero maturity risk premium, but that is probably not valid in the real world.

Answer:

This problem assumed a zero maturity risk premium, but that is probably not valid in the real world.

Explanation:

Consider the following definition

Maturity risk premium determines a bond’s price. Other risks include the chance that the bond issuer will fail to make its payments and the risk that you won’t be able to quickly find a buyer for the bond when you want to sell it, forcing you to lower your asking price.

Leona [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Revenue  $540,000

less: Salaries for drivers  (390,000)

Fuel expense  (54,000)

insurance  (74,000)

Division line  (44,000)

Net loss  (22,000)

If division is eliminated the income would increase by $22,000

So it should be eliminated.

2) Decrease in income = $600,000 - ($540,000+$22,000)

= $38,000

3) What is the minimum amount of revenue required = 600,000 - 38,000 = $562,000

b. $2,892

Explanation:

a. Date Lease  Effective        Decrease in  Outstanding              

             payment     interest           balance          balance

July 1                                                                           $150,000

July 1     $5,376                                  $5,376             $144,624

                                                                                ($150,000 - $5,376)

Oct 1      $5,376       $2,892              $2,484              $142,140

                                                       ( $5,376 - $2,892) ($144,624 - $2,484)

b. Interest expense on October 1 = $2,892

Working Note:-

Take the outstanding balance times 2% (8% annual = 2% quarterly)

So, the Effective interest = $144,624 × 0.02

= $2,892.48

Year  Deposit amount ($)  At 9% for 3 years Future value of deposits ($)

1            $1,500                            (1.09)^3 = 1.295029        $1,942.54

2             $3,000                    (1.09)^2 = 1.1881                 $3,564.3

3            $2,200                            (1.09)^1 = 1.09                 $2,398

4             $3,000                               1                                 $3,000
