Consider two bonds, a 3-year bond paying an annual coupon of 5% and a 10-year bond also with an annual coupon of 5%. Both currently sell at a face value of $1,000. Now suppose interest rates rise to 10%. a. What is the new price of the 3-year bonds? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Bond price b. What is the new price of the 10-year bonds? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Bond price c. Which bonds are more sensitive to a change in interest rates? O Long-term bonds O Short-term bonds

Aproduction line has three machines a, b, and c, with reliabilities of .96, .86, and .85, respectively. the machines are arranged so that if one breaks down, the others must shut down. engineers are weighing two alternative designs for increasing the line’s reliability. plan 1 involves adding an identical backup line, and plan 2 involves providing a backup for each machine. in either case, three machines (a, b, and c) would be used with reliabilities equal to the original three. a. compute overall system reliability under plan 1. (round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.) reliability b. compute overall system reliability under plan 2. (round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.) reliability c. which plan will provide the higher reliability? plan2plan1
