Answer:

Explanation:

a. If you believe that the term structure next year will be the same as today’s, calculate the return on (i) the 1-year zero and (ii) the 4-year zero.

b. Which bond provides a greater expected 1-year return? O 1-year zero-coupon bond O 4-year zero-coupon bond

The return on one year bond is = 5.2%

The price of 4 year bond today

=\frac{  1000}{(1.054)^3}

If yield curves is unchanged, the bond will have 3-year maturity and price will be = 854.04

Return

=\frac{ (854.04 - 807.22)}{807.22}

Return = 5.8%

The longer term bond has given the higher return in this case at it's YTM fell during the holding period(4 -year)

= Interest + share of net income Dec 31,2020

= 1,400,000 + (10% * 700,000)

= Carrying value + Net stake purchased

= 1,520,000 + 3,040,000

= $4.560,000

Carrying value, December 2021

= Carrying value + share of net income - share of dividends

= 4,560,000 + (30% * 815,000) - (1.55 * (25,000 + 50,000 shares))

= $‭4,688,250‬
