The solution and complete explanation for the above question and mentioned conditions is given below in the attached document.i hope my explanation will help you in understanding this particular question.
Explanation:
Answer:
Sam change: -5.13%
Dave change -18.01%
Explanation:
If interest rate increase by 2%
then the YTM of the bond will be 9.3%
We need eto calcualte the present value of the coupon and maturity of the bond at this new rate:
<em><u>For the coupon payment we use the formula for ordinary annuity</u></em>
Coupon payment: 1,000 x 7.3% / 2 payment per year: 36.50
time 6 (3 years x 2 payment per year)
YTM seiannual: 0.0465 (9.3% annual /2 = 4.65% semiannual)
PV $187.3546
<u><em>For the maturity we calculate usign the lump sum formula:</em></u>
Maturity: $ 1,000.00
time: 6 payment
rate: 0.0465
PV 761.32
Now, we add both together:
PV coupon $187.3546 + PV maturity $761.3154 = $948.6700
now we calcualte the change in percentage:
948.67/1,000 - 1 = -0.051330026 = -5.13
For Dave we do the same:
C 36.50
time 40
rate 0.0465
PV $657.5166
Maturity 1,000.00
time 40.00
rate 0.0465
PV 162.34
PV c $657.5166
PV m $162.3419
Total $819.8585
Change:
819.86 / 1,000 - 1 = -0.180141521 = -18.01%
Answer:
An output that maximizes revenue and profits. If a firm can price discriminate, it will sell its product or service at a different price to every single consumer. Perfect price discrimination refers to pricing your product at exactly the highest amount that each individual consumer is willing to pay, i.e. consumer surplus disappears.
Answer:
C. Capital Loss
Explanation:
When the selling price of an asset like bonds etc exceeds it purchase price then the capital profit will be the difference between sale and purchase price.
But if the purchase price is greater than the sale price the difference is called Capital loss.
Example: if we buy 100 shares for $20 each and after a year sell them for $ 18 then the difference is called the capital loss.
