- For the population of people in the workforce in 1976, let y = wage, where wage is measured in dollars per hour. Thus, for a particular person, if wage = 6.75, the hourly wage is $6.75. Let x = educ denote years of schooling; for example, educ =12 corresponds to a complete high school education. Because the average wage in the sample is $5.90, the Consumer Price Index indicates that this amount is equivalent to $24.90 in 2016 dollars.Using the data in WAGE1 where n = 526 individuals, we obtain the following OLS regression line (or sample regression function):arrow_forwardDefine the following: Callable bond Puttable bond Zero-coupon bond Premium bond Discount bond Crossover bonds Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annual coupon payments.

- Assume an investor deposits $116,000 in a professionally managed account. One year later, the account has grown in value to $136,000 and the investor withdraws $43,000. At the end of the second year, the account value is $107,000. No other additions or withdrawals were made. During the same two years, the risk-free rate remained constant at 3.94 percent and a relevant benchmark earned 9.58 percent the first year and 6.00 percent the second. Calculate geometric average of holding period returns over two years. (You need to calculate IRR of cash flows over two years.)
