Answer:

Multiple choices below are missing:

A) purchase Bond A

B) purchase Bond B

C) purchase neither A nor B at this time

D) negotiate a higher rate on Bond A

The correct option is A,purchase bond A.

Explanation:

By purchasing Bond A,Lee is assured interest payment of 7.5% for a period of twenty years,hence the issuer cannot call the bond if interest rate drops by 2% in order to issue a lower interest-bearing bond which would be cheaper cost-wise.

However, if Lee purchases Bond B with current coupon of 8.25%,the interest is only guaranteed for a period of two years,since the issuer has the prerogative of calling back the bond after two years should interest fall in order to issue another bond that commands lower interest rate.

When economists speak of a deadweight​ loss, they are referring to?
nadezda [96]
Deadweight loss is a type of economic inefficiency when a good or service is not at its economic equilibrium (where supply equals demand). This loss may be experienced because of a tax or subsidy, or because of market power, such as a monopoly. Economists refer to deadweight loss when they want to show the negative effects of certain policy decisions that are less than optimal.

Flauer [41]

Answer:

Yield to call (YTC) = 7.64%

Explanation:

Yield to call (YTC) = {coupon + [(call price - market price)/n]} / [(call price + market price)/2]

YTC = {135 + [(1,050 - 1,280)/5]} / [(1,050 + 1,280)/2]

YTC = 89 / 1,165 = 0.07639 = 7.64%

Yield to call is how much a bondholder will earn if the bond is actually called, and it may differ from yield to maturity since the call price is generally higher than the face value, but the yield to maturity generally is longer than the call period.
