Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annua

Answer:

€928.46

Explanation:

Since it was hinted that bonds issued outside of  the United States pay coupons annually, it is expected that the bonds issued in Germany pay annual coupons, and its price is computed below using the bond price formula, excel PV function, and financial calculator:

Bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+annual coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n/r

face value=€1,000

r=yield to maturity=8.7%

n=number of annual coupons in 10 years=10

annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=€1,000*7.6%=€76

bond price=1000/(1+8.7%)^10+76*(1-(1+8.7%)^-10/8.7%

bond price=1000/(1.087)^10+76*(1-(1.087)^-10/0.087

bond price=1000/2.30300797+76*(1-0.43421474)/0.087

bond price=1000/2.30300797+76*0.56578526/0.087

bond price= 434.21+494.25= €928.46

Excel PV function:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

=-pv(8.7%,10,76,1000)

pv=€928.46

Financial calculator:

N=10

PMT=76

I/Y=8.7

FV=1000

CPT PV=€928.46

Daniel [21]

Answer:

C. Encourage research

Explanation:

If a drug company discovers a new drug , it can apply for availing a patent for the same which shall grant it exclusive right to produce and sell the drug in the market for several years.

In such cases, the government tests such drugs if those are genuine before approving such a patent which creates the situation of a monopoly whereby the pharmaceutical company becomes the single seller of such drugs.

The purpose behind creation of such sort of monopolies being, this serves as an incentive or the encouragement for such pharmaceutical companies to carry out extensive research and thereby discover new drugs whose discovery would ultimately lead to common welfare.
