Assume that two years have passed, and the purchasing agent mentioned in problem 22 must recompute the optimal number of wafers to purchase and from which source to purchase them. Source B has decided to accept any size offer, but sells thewafers for $2.55 each for orders of up to 3,000 wafers and $2.25 each for the incremental amount ordered over 3,000 wafers.

There are three factors that can affect the shape of the treasury yield curve (r* t , ip t , and mrp t ) and five factors that can affect the shape of the corporate yield curve (r* t , ip t , mrp t , drp t , and lp t ). the yield curve reflects the aggregation of the impacts from these factors. suppose the real risk-free rate and inflation rate are expected to remain at their current levels throughout the foreseeable future. consider all factors that affect the yield curve. then identify which of the following shapes that the us treasury yield curve can take. check all that apply. a. downward-sloping yield curveb. upward-sloping yield curvec. inverted yield curve
