Answer: -12.1%

Explanation:

Bond Sam was priced at Par which means it could have been priced at $1,000 and its yield was the same as the coupon rate of 8%.

If interest rates rise by 5%, the yield becomes:

= 8% + 5%

= 13%

Price of bond is attached:

Yield = 13% /2 = 6.5% per semiannual period

Coupon = 8% * 1,000 * 0.5 = $40 per semi annual period

Period till maturity = 3 * 2 = 6 semiannual periods

Price = $878.97

Percentage change in price:

= (878.97 - 1,000) / 1,000 * 100%

= -12.1%

Then political turmoil and corruption resulting in it falling from number one spot to number 73.

Ilya [14]

No significant interest equity investment

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

A technique used in accounting by a firm for the purpose of recording the profits that are obtained from its investments made on other company refers to an equity method. This investment is an equity investment. The profits that are obtained for the investments made by a firm is reported by the company to the firm that made the investment.

Suppose that each 0.1-percentage-point increase in the equilibrium interest rate induces a $3 billion decrease in real planned i
kirill115 [55]

Answer and Explanation:

(1) Decrease in investment = Decrease in money supply / Investment multiplier

= $60 billion / 5 = $12 billion

Real planned investment will decrease by $12 billion

The Federal Reserve decreased money supply by 60 billion and we wish to determine by how much this would affect real planned investment. We have therefore applied the investment multiplier to determine decrease in real planned investment. This is based on Keynes' theory of investment multiplier
