(3) Is the stream an annuity? (4) An important rule is that you should never show a nominal rate on a time line or use it in calculations unless what condition holds? (Hint: Think of annual compounding, when INOM = EFF% = IPER.)

The current interest rate is i, and the average expectation in the market is that this will remain unchanged. What will be the price of the consol today? answer : According to the question we need to calculate the current price of the perpetual consol. Perpetual consoles are priced differently because their expected income is spread through an indefinite period. So, perpetual consoles are priced using the current yield. The current yield is calculated as:- coupon amountMarket price×100coupon amountMarket price×100 After calculating the current yield price is calculated by the above formula where, i = Current interest rate y = yield so, the price of this consol will be Price = i/y I please need the solutions for part b) question b) In the next period however, the interest rate changes unexpectedly to i .
