With the triplets now in high school, Jamie Lee and Ross have made good decisions so far concerning their financial and investment strategies. They budgeted throughout the years and are right on track to reaching their long-term investment goals of paying the triplets’ college tuition and accumulating enough to purchase a beach house to enjoy when Jamie Lee and Ross retire. The pair are still researching where to best invest the $50,000 that Ross had recently inherited from his uncle’s estate. Ross and Jamie Lee would like to invest in several varieties of stocks, bonds, or other investment instruments to supplement their retirement income goals. Jamie Lee and Ross have been researching stock investment opportunities that my offer lucrative returns, but they know there is plenty of risk involved. They are aware that they must develop a firm plan to assess the risk of the various investment types so they may have the proper balance between high, moderate, and low risk investment options.  They decided that at this stage of their lives, it may be wise to speak to an investment counselor. They contact Mr. Jay Hall, who has been highly recommended by a trusted colleague and friend of Ross throughout the years. Mr. Hall assesses their risk for investment and recommends two different corporate bonds. One of those companies he suggested is The Coca-Cola Company. Here are the questions I'm struggle on... What was the original issue date? _______? What are the firm's basic earnings per share for the last year? $________?
