Credit
A company issued a 10%, 5-year, $10,000 bond to an investor for a cash price of
$9,506.
The best explanation/reason why the company did not receive exactly $10,000 cash
is:
the company paid a broker a commission on the issuance.
the interest rate changed since the bonds were first offered, and the investor
demanded a higher interest rate for her investment in the bond
the interest rate changed since the bonds were first offered, and the investor
accepted a lower interest rate for her investment in the bond
none of the above are legitimate reasons
