Answer: 10.6%

Explanation:

The bond is already selling in the market at Par. This means that the current coupon rate is the right one to sell it at if the company wants to sell at par.

We can prove this however.

If the company wants to sell the bonds at par, it will have to issue at a coupon rate that is the equivalent of the Yield to maturity because bonds are issued at par when the YTM and the Coupon rate are equal.

To find the rate, use an excel worksheet or a financial calculator.

Present Value = -1,000

Number of periods = 15 * 2 = 30 semi annual periods

Payment/ PMT = (10.6% * 1,000) / 2 = 106/2 = $53

Future Value/ FV = Par value of $1,000

Rate = 5.3%

Make it an annual figure = 5.3 * 2 = 10.6%

Answer: (a).

Annexure: <u>Since a part of the information was found missing in the question, a similar question has been provided as an attachment for reference. </u>

If the interest rate falls with other things remaining constant, a firm would like to raise more money via debt instruments.

This will lead to an increase in the quantity of loanable funds demanded.

This would further lead to increase in the level of invested funds by the public as it would get cheaper for the corporates to avail loans.

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Low betas.

Explanation:

Low beta stocks are considered to be less risky, and usually they also offer low returns. The risk of losing capital in this type of investment is very low. This type of investment is ideal for people that are risk adverse and prefer to maintain their capital even at low returns.

On the other hand the higher the beta the higher the risk, and it also comes with higher returns on investment.

Because the needs for household goods and food are always constant, the companies that supply them tend to have stock that are low beta.
