(bond
valuation)
bellingham bonds have an annual coupon rate of
8
percent and a par value of
$1,000
and will mature in
10
years. if you require a return of
7
percent, what price would you be willing to pay for the bond? what happens if you pay more for the bond? what happens if you pay less for the bond?
a. the price you would be willing to pay for the bond is
$nothing .
(round to the nearest cent.)

if i put something wrong your not gonna like it so rather not say nothing.

30.5*10=350$

you have to multiply the number without the decimal point then add it later but if its tenn u must move the place value of the decimal point 1 to the right.

1. when "a" is a root of a polynomial, (x -a) is a factor of it. for the three roots given, the factors of the desired polynomial are (x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3).

in order to make the leading coefficient be negative, we need to multiply this product by a negative number. any negative number will do, but we choose a small (magnitude) value that will eliminate the fraction: -2.

then

f(x) = -2(x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3) = -(x +2)(2x -1)(x -3)

= -(2x² +3x -2)(x -3)

= -(2x³ -3x² -11x +6)

f(x) = -2x³ +3x² +11x -6

2. a graph created by the desmos on-line graphing calculator is shown, and the zeros are highlighted.

3. as indicated in part 1, the multiplier of this equation can be anything and the zeros will remain the same. you want a negative leading coefficient, so the "anything" is restricted to any of the infinite number of numbers that will make that be the case.
