And, according to this company's risk, investors require a rate of return of 11 percent. Answer the following questions. a. If the interest is paid semiannyally, the value of the bond is g

$1,251.66

Explanation:

Price of a bond is:

= Present value of coupon payments + Present value of par value at maturity

Coupon payments = 15% * 1,000 * 1/2 years

= $75

Yield = 11% / 2 = 5.5%

Number of periods = 11 * 2 = 22 semi annual periods

Coupon payments are annuities so present value is:

Present value of annuity = Amount * (1 - ( 1 + r)^-number of periods) / r)

Bond Price = [75 * ( 1 - (1 + 5.5%)⁻²²/ 5.5%)] + 1,000 / (1 + 5.5%)²²

= $1,251.66

Step-by-step po:

3 Median = Mode + 2 Mean

Given: Mean = 30  / Mode = 40

Now: 3 Median = Mode + 2 Mean

=> 3 Median = 40 + 2 (30)

=> 3 Median = 40 + 60

=> 3 Median = 100

=> Median = 100/3

=> Median = 33.3
