Answer:

A. $ 748,714

Explanation:

This 10-year bond with semiannual coupon payment will have 20 coupon payments plus 1 par payment at maturity. The bond price issuing price is the present value of all coupon payments as well as par value. Let formulate the bond price as below:

Bond price = [(Coupon rate/2) x (Par value)]/[1 + (Market interest rate/2)]  + [(Coupon rate/2) x (Par value)]/[1 + (Market interest rate/2)]^2 + ...+ (Coupon rate/2) x (Par value) + Par value]/[1 + (Market interest rate/2)]^20

Putting all the number together, we have:

Bond price = [(10%/2) x (950,000)]/[1 + (14%/2)]  + [(10%/2) x (950,000)]/[1 + (14%/2)]^2 + ...+ (10%/2) x (950,000) + 950,000]/[1 + (14%/2)]^20 = 748,714

kozerog [31]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation below.

Explanation:

Solution:

According to the data given: This can be solved as following. (Note: we are not given income tax tables to calculate the accurate net pay. So, according to given information here. Following is the accurate one. )

Let's assume, a 6.2% tax rate for SS ( Social Security) and 1.45% tax rate on Medicare:

So,

Social Security = 6.2%

Medicare = 1.45%

Pay Per hour = $14.30

So, let's calculate Rhonda's Gross pay:

Gross Pay = Pay per hour x total number of hours

Gross pay = $14.30 x 80 hours

Gross Pay = $1,144

Now, calculate the Rhonda's Reduction for Social Security:

Rhonda's Reduction for Social Security = $1,144 x 6.2%

Rhonda's Reduction for Social Security = $70.928

Similarly, Rhonda' Reduction for Medicare:

Rhonda' Reduction for Medicare = $1,144 x 1.45%

Rhonda' Reduction for Medicare = $16.588

So Finally,

Rhonda's Take-home Pay for her first check will be = Gross pay - Rhonda's Reduction for Social Security - Rhonda' Reduction for Medicare

Rhonda's Take-home Pay for her first check will be = $1,144 - $70.928 - $16.588

Rhonda's Take-home Pay for her first check will be = $1,056.484

Deffense [45]

Answer:

B) nine months

Explanation:

The federal government grants patents to inventors so that they have exclusive rights to make, use, sell, or offer to sell an invention for a limited time: design patents last 14 years, while if you actually create a product the patent will last 20 years.

The whole idea behind patents is to give the inventor the time needed to reap the benefits  of their inventory in order to replenish costs and make a profit before other companies can make generic copies of the invention.
