The Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890 was the first measure passed by the U.S. Congress to prohibit trusts. It was named for Senator John Sherman of Ohio, who was a chairman of the Senate finance committee and the Secretary of the Treasury under President Hayes. Several states had passed similar laws, but they were limited to intrastate businesses. The Sherman Antitrust Act was based on the constitutional power of Congress to regulate interstate commerce.

                                  Present Value                          681.0876177

C)

There is no transaction cost and CR = IRR thats why the present value of the bond will be equal to face value of bond

CR =  15.5%

IRR = 15.5%

Present value of bond at 7.75% semmi annually return
