Answer:
1 +1R4= {(1 +1R3)(1 + E(4r1) +L4)}1/4
1.0500 = {(1.0475)^3(1 + 0.0525 +L4)}1/4
(1.0500)^4= (1.0475)3^(1 + 0.0525 +L4)
(1.0500)^4/(1.0475)^3= 1 + 0.0525 + L4
(1.0500)4/(1.0475)^3-1.0525
L4= .0050358564 = 0.504%
Answer:
The correct answer is option (B).
Explanation:
According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:
For Jan.1,2020 value = $626,400
Interest rate = 7%
So, we can calculate the amount of bond interest expense by using following formula:
Interest Expense = Carrying Value × Market Interest Rate
By putting the value of following
Interest expense = $626,400 × 7%
= $626,400 × 0.07
= $43,838
Hence, the amount of bond interest expense to be recognized on December 31, 2020, is $43,838.

Answer:
Explanation:
- The bond has 8% coupon paid semiannually, and those bonds sell at their par value.
- Since the bond sales at par value, Market rate (Yield) = Coupon rate =8%
<u>Second bond:</u>
- Semiannual coupon amount = 1000 x 8%/2 = $40
- Time to maturity = 6 years = 12 semiannual periods
- Semiannual Yield = 8%/2 = 4%
To get price of this bond we will use PV function of excel:
= PV (rate, nper, pmt, fv, type)
= PV (4%, 12, -40, -1000, 0)
= $1053.32
- Price of this bond = $1,053.3
Answer:
The answer is III) make simultaneous trades in two markets without any net investment.
Explanation:
Arbitrage is simultaneously buying an asset ( may be currency, securities...) in a low-priced market and sell it in a high-priced market.

Thus, (III) is the correct answer.
