Answer:
The systematic portion of the unexpected return is 1.180% and the unsystematic portion was 0.288%
Explanation:
E(R) = 0.034 + 1.18*(0.108 - 0.034) = 0.12132
R - E(R) = 0.136 - 0.12132 = 0.01468
RM - E(RM) = 0.118 - 0.108 = 0.01
[RM - E(RM)] * Beta = 0.01 * 1.18 = 0.0118 = 1.180%
[R - E(R)] - [RM - E(RM)] * Beta = 0.01468 * 0.0118 = 0.00288 = 0.288%
Answer:
Pharaoh will have to pay $1,084.47 for every outstanding bond that it retires.
Explanation:
if the market rate is 9.5%, then the price of outstanding bonds is:
PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 4.75%)¹⁴ = $522.21
PV of coupon payments = $55 x 10.22283 (PV annuity factor, 4.5%, 14 periods) = $562.26
market price = $1,084.47
