Explanation:
<u>1. seml-annual Interest payment</u>
Seml-annual Interest payment = ($540,000 × 9 %) ÷ 2
= $24,300
<u>2. Number of seml-annual Interest payment</u>
Number of seml-annual Interest payment = 6 years × 2
= 12
<u>3. Issue</u>
The annual market rate for the bonds (YTM) , 12% is greater than the coupon rate of the bond 9%.
The Price will be less than the par value and we say that the bond is trading at a discount.
<u>4. Computation of the Issue Price, PV</u>
PMT = $24,300
n = 12
YTM = 12 %
FV = $540,000
p/yr = 2
PV = ?
Using a Financial Calculator, the Issue Price, PV is $470,090.86
<u>5. Journal Entry</u>
Cash $470,090.86 (debit)

Answer:
The answer is: decrease government spending or increase tax rates.
Explanation:
Nominal GDP is currently $170 billions (= $100 billions + $40 billions + $20 billions + $10 billions).
Since full employment GDP = $120 billions, the nominal GDP is much higher ($170 billions > $120 billions). So the government must try to cool the economy and the two main ways it can do it is by reducing government spending or by raising taxes which will lower private consumption.
