Answer:
Ans. The equilibrium rate of return on a 1-year Treasury bond is 6.65% (please check the explanation)
Explanation:
Hi, well, this type of bonds exist so people can avoid the time value of money risk, in other words, to keep money save from inflation and provide a risk free return at the same time. From a part of the text I can tell that the person who wrote it wanted to add up the risk free rate and the inflation rate, that is 3.05%+3.60% =6.65%.
This is why I wrote this answer, but the truth is that since they are both effective rates (risk free rate and inflation), they need to be add as effective rates, that is:
Therefore
So the real equilibrium rate of return is 6.76%, but for the sake of the question, I wrote 6.65%.
Best of luck.
Answer:
GDP= $22
Explanation:
The groos domestic product (GDP) formula is:
GDP= Consumption (C)+ Investment (I)+ Government expenditure (G)+ Net exports (exports-imports)
The problem gives the following information:
G= $12
I=$10
X-M= $0
We do not have information about consumption, then we assume is zero.
GDP= $0+$10+$12+$0
GDP=$22
I really don’t know but mark me brainliest because I lost most of my points
Answer:
$1,138.92
Explanation:
Current bond price can be calculated present value (PV) of cash flows formula below:
Current price or PV of bond = C{[1 - (1 + i)^-n] ÷ i} + {M × (1 + i)^-n} ...... (1)
Where:
Face value = $1,000
r = coupon rate = 7.2% annually = (7.2% ÷ 2) semiannually = 3.6% semiannually
C = Amount of semiannual interest payment = Face value × r
C = $1,000 × 3.6% = $36
n = number of payment periods remaining = (12 - 1) × 2 = 22
i = YTM = 5.5% annually = (5.5% ÷ 2) semiannually = 2.75% semiannually = 0.0275 semiannually
M = value at maturity = face value = $1,000
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
PV of bond = 36{[1 - (1 + 0.0275)^-22] ÷ 0.0275} + {1,000 × (1 + 0.0275)^-22}
PV of bond = $1,138.92.
Therefore, the current bond price is $1,138.92.
Answer:
I think one is borrowers who don't pay back
Then I think that interest rates falling is also one
These are the only ones I can think of. hope they help
