If the appropriate interest rate is 11 percent, what type of deal did the athlete snag? Suppose all payments other than the first $3.25 million are paid at the end of year
Compute the Present Value:
Question2. Assuring the bond is bought at a market level, given the bond information and actual reinvestment rates, compute the realized rate of return. Face value = $1,000 coupon rate = 5% maturity = 5 payment = annual 1F2=10% 2F3=9% 3F4=11% 4F5=9%
Question3. What’s the yield to maturity of the following bond if it is bought at market level?
Face value = $1000
Coupon rate = 5%
Maturity = 5
Payment = annual.
You plan to make 25 annual deposits of $24000 into a retirement account. with first deposit being made 4 years from now, how much will be in the account in 39 years if the interest rate is 9%?
