On 15 September 2020 you plan to buy a 6% p.a. Treasury bond maturing on 15 September 2026.

1. How much would you pay to earn 7% p.a. on your transaction? Ignore taxation considerations.

2. How much would you pay to earn a net return of 7% p.a. on your transaction, allowing for tax on interest only of 30%? In this instance, assume tax on interest is paid immediately.

3. How much would you pay to earn a net return of 7% p.a. on your transaction, allowing for tax on interest and capital gains of 30%? In answering this question, you should assume that the tax on interest and capital gains is deferred by twelve months.

4. Allowing for tax on interest and capital gains of 30%, what would your net annual yield be if you paid $97.447 for the bond? Again, assume that the tax on interest and capital gains is deferred by twelve months

Please provide equations for each question not tables.

Is this true or false? The foci for the hyperbola ((x-2)^(2))/(36)-((y+1)^(2))/(64)=1 are (2, -1 +4\sqrt(7) and (2, -1 - 4\sqrt(7)

3. Titanic Corp issued 7 year 8% bonds due 2026 at par. This bond pays interest on a semi-annual basis. However, right after Titanic issued the bonds, the rate environment changed as the Fed lowered rates to stimulate growth. Now the market’s required return is 4% (all else being equal).

In this current environment, what is the trading price of the bond? Is this bond trading at a discount or premium? (5 points)

Now suppose you find out that Titanic bonds are callable in 2 years at 101% (or $1010) right after Titanic issued the bonds. Assuming the trading price you found above, what is the bond’s yield to call? Is the yield to call or yield to maturity higher? Why? (Hint: the yield to call is the yield you get if you hold the bond until the call date and redeem the call price ) (5 points)

A: Plot the date

B: find the line of best fit

C: determine ŷ AT x=3

D: Find r and r^2

E: explain r and r^2

A consumer’s utility is given by ?(?, ?) = ? ^1/2? ^1/4 where Z is the consumption of pizza and C is the consumption of coffee. Let pZ and pC denote the prices of pizza and coffee, and let m be the consumer’s income.

(a) State the “optimality condition” characterizing the best affordable bundle.

(b) Derive the consumer’s demands for pizza and coffee. You must show your work.

(c) What is the consumer’s optimal consumption if ?? = ?? = 1 and m=120? ? ∗ =_________ ? ∗ =_________

(d) Suppose that the price of coffee rises to ?? = 2 and at the same time income increases to m=160? Is the bundle (? ∗ , ? ∗ ) in (c) still affordable? Is the consumer off or worse off as a result of the change in price and income?
