AK Inc. is paying 5% coupon rate for its bondholders over the next 8 years. Your required rate of return is 7 percent, how much
1 answer:
Answer: $880.57
Explanation:
Assuming Par value of bond is $1,000.
Value of bond = (Coupon * Present value interest factor of annuity, no. years, required return) + Par Value/ (1 + required return)^ no. of years
Coupon = 5% * 1,000 = $50
Value of bond = (50 * 5.9713) + 1,000 / (1 + 7%)⁸
= 298.565 + 582
= $880.57

Answer: The nominal money supply should set at 1,600.
Explanation:
Given that,
Money demand function: (M/P)d = 2,200 – 200r
r - Interest rate
Money supply (M) = 2,000
Price level (P) = 2
If the fed wants to set the interest rate at 7% then,
Money supply = money demand
=
= 2,200 – 200r
P = 2 and r = 7%
= 2,200 – 200 × 7
M = 800 × 2
M = 1,600
The nominal money supply should set at 1,600.
