Consider the following two bonds. Bond A returns $1000 (coupon) per year for the first 9 years and $5000 (face value) in the 10th year, and Bond B returns $900 (coupon) per year for the first 19 years and $10000 in the 20th year. Compare the present values of the bonds when the interest rate r is 0.1 and 0.2.

Present value of bond A:

interest rate = 10%

PV of face value = $5,000/1.1¹⁰ = $1,927.72

PV of coupon payments = $1,000 x 5.7590 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 9 periods) = $5,759

present value = $7,686.72

interest rate = 20%

PV of face value = $5,000/1.2¹⁰ = $807.53

PV of coupon payments = $1,000 x 4.0310 (PV annuity factor, 20%, 9 periods) = $4,031

present value = $4,838.53

Present value of bond B:

interest rate = 10%

PV of face value = $10,000/1.2¹⁰ = $1,615.06

PV of coupon payments = $900 x 8.3649 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 19 periods) = $7,528.41

present value = $9,143.47

interest rate = 20%

PV of face value = $10,000/1.2²⁰ = $260.84

PV of coupon payments = $900 x 4.8435 (PV annuity factor, 20%, 19 periods) = $4,359.15

present value = $4,619.99

yup the answer is

the answer is: c.that person might be arrested and deported

filling w-4 form incorrectly usually would rise suspicions from government's auditors. when they notice such mistakes, they would send their teams to investigate the situation further.

if those investigation teams believe that the incorrectness is done on purpose (with malicious intent), that person can be arrested or deported
