Answer:

The answer is 9.38%

Explanation:

This is a semiannual paying coupon. And it means West Corp pays interest twice a year.

N(Number of periods) = 24 periods ( [14years - 2 years ago] x 2)

I/Y(Yield to maturity) = ?

PV(present value or market price) = $1,030 ( 103% x $1,000)

PMT( coupon payment) = $49 ( [9.8 percent÷ 2] x $1,000)

FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.

We are using a Financial calculator for this.

N= 24; PV = 1.030; PMT = 49; FV= $1,000; CPT I/Y= 4.69

Therefore, the Yield-to-maturity of the bond for annual is 9.38% (4.69% x 2)

She should sell one of the stocks that she's held for over two years because long term gains receive preferential tax treatment

For the point of taxation, short term capital gains are treated as ordinary income , where as long term capital gains have preferential tax rates of 0%,15% or 20%, which depends upon the income level. Also effective tax rates on the long term capital gain is lesser than the short term capital gain.

With the top incomes paying about half the taxes on capital income as earned income, this preferential rate is one of the most expensive in the tax law and is regarded as a tax expenditure.
