Document Summary
Class business: continue reading the wall street journal everyday until thursday, february 20, click on print edition, look for heard on the street. Note: it is very hard to read the articles older than one week; save them: exam i will take place in class on tuesday, february 25. Form & taxes: calculate the tax rate for a business (the rate is 21%). 30% of the exam came directly from myfinancelab. A few questions about things that were not discussed in class from the core invest- ment alternatives information. Know where the market is at (e. g. , dow jones, nasdaq, s&p 500, 10 year trea- suries). The term structure of interest rates is the relationship between the interest rate and maturity with risk held constant. Graph the years to maturity on the x-axis and the interest rate on the y-axis with risk held constant. You will typically see a positively sloped line known as the yield curve.
