<u>Solution and explanation:</u>
<u>Given data:
</u>
Ask price: 98.4062, bid price: 98.2812, par value of the bond: $10,000
<u>The following formula is used in order to calculate the actual value of the bond
</u>
The ask price will be used while calculating the actual value of the bond and the par value of the bond will be used
Ask price will be multiplied with par value of the bond and divided by 100
= $9840.62
Therefore, the par value as per the above calculation is $9840.62

Answer:
$42.604
Explanation:
Using dividend growth model we have D1 = $1.25, dividend at end of year 1
P1 = $45 price at the end of year 1
Ke = 10% Cost of capital or expected return
g = ? the growth rate expected
Thus
D2 = D1 + g
$45 = 
$4.5 - 45g = 1.25 + g
$3.25 = 46g
7.06% = g
Now, using value of g we have
P0 = 
Current price P0 = $42.604
Answer: Stereotypes can have positive (merits) and negative (problems) traits attached to it.
Explanation:
A stereotype is an over generalized, predetermined belief about a category of individuals.
Merits:
Stereotypes can help to make a perception of someone, thus filling in missing information about that person.
Stereotypes can also place individuals into certain pre - established groups, which help to organize info much more efficiently.
Stereotypes can allow one to respond to problems quicker by applying past experiences that may seem similar to the current situation.

Stereotypes can create employee discrimination. This is when an employee is treated differently because of a certain category that they belong to.
Stereotypes can also make it difficult for people to change their perceptions of a person with regards to qualities that may be in conflict with the stereotype.
