A municipal bond has yield to maturity of 4.83 percent. An investor with a marginal tax rate of 35 percent is indifferent betwee
mezya [45]

Answer: 7.43%

Explanation:

The yield to maturity simply refers to the total return that is expected on a bond as long as the bond is held till it matures.

In this case, since the investor is indifferent between this municipal bond and an otherwise identical taxable corporate bond, the yield to maturity of the corporate bond will be:

4.83% = Corporate bond YTM × ( 1- 35%)

4.83% = Corporate bond YTM × 65%

Corporate bond YTM = 4.83% / 65%

Corporate bond YTM = 0.0483/0.65

Corporate bond YTM = 7.43%

The yield to maturity of the corporate bond is 7.43%

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Cash A/c Dr $2,480

         To Interest receivable $60

         To Interest revenue $20

         To Note receivable $2,400

(Being the collection of funds is recorded)

The computation of interest receivable is shown below:

= Principal × rate of interest × number of months ÷ (total number of months in a year)  

= $2,400 × 10% × (3 months ÷ 12 months)

= $60

And for interest revenue would be

= Principal × rate of interest × number of months ÷ (total number of months in a year)  

= $2,400 × 10% × (1 months ÷ 12 months)

= $20
