a. You have been recently employed as the financial manager of a manufacturing firm. Your boss has recently expressed an interest in bond investment. He has asked you to give a presentation on investing in corporate bonds. You have collected the following bond information from a financial website. All bonds have a par value of $1,000. Which of the following bonds you will choose if you expect the market interest rates will decrease by 100 basis points (i.e. 1%)? Explain your answer without calculation. (4 marks) BondCoupon rate (%)Maturity (years)Price ($)X641,018.9Y841,000.0Z65973.3 b. HUS Corporation would like to raise $20 million for capital expenditure. The firm plans to issue 10-year bonds for this purpose. The firm is evaluating two issue alternatives: a bond paying coupons annually and a zero-coupon bond. Both bonds will have a par value of $1,000. The firm also believes it can get a rating of AA from Standard & Poors. The 10-year U.S. Treasury bond has a yield to maturity of 6.5% and the yield spread on 10-year AA-rated corporate bonds is 0.4%. i. What coupon rate should the firm set on its new coupon bonds if it wants them to sell at par? Explain. (3 marks) ii. What is the issue price of zero-coupon bond? (3 marks) iii. Suppose HUS coupon bond in (i) is selling to offer a yield to maturity of 6% after one year. Calculate the capital gains yield over a year for the bond. (5 marks)

(2001.F.2) Consider the case where a gas reacts with a solid to form a second gas: 2A(g)+B(s) ? A$_2$B(g) At the reaction temperature, the dimensionless free energy of reaction, ?G°/RT, is 0.814, and the solid has a sublimation pressure of 3.2×10$^{-6}$ bar. a. Beginning with an initial vapor composition of pure A and an excess of pure B, determine the equilibrium composition of the vapor phase when the reaction occurs at a pressure of 1.81 bar. b. For which species does the mole fraction in the vapor phase increase as the pressure increases? c. Beginning with an excess of B and an initial vapor composition that is an equimolar mixture of A and C (an inert vapor that does not participate in the reaction), determine the equilibrium vapor composition at 1.81 bar.
