Let's denote the price of a nonmaturing bond (called a consol) as P. The equation that indicates this price is Pn =-, where I is the annual net income the bond generates and r is the nominal market interest rate.a. Suppose that a bond promises the holder $200 per year forever. The nominal market interest rate is 6 percent. Calculate the bond's current price: S. (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)

Information Provided: Interest rate = 6% Payment = $200
