Assume that the Microsoft bonds have a face value of $1,000, 5-years to maturity and pay annual coupons of $100. The next coupon is due in one year. The yield on equivalently risky corporate bonds is currently 5%. Assume the yield stays at 5% over the life of the bond. Determine the price of the bond today and after each of the first four coupon payments. Plot those prices on a graph with price on the y-axis and time on the x-axis. (The x-axis starts at time 0 and ends on the date of the fourth coupon.) What do you note about the time path (slope of the line) of the bond price?
◦ It is upward sloping.
◦ It is downward sloping.
◦ It is a horizontal line.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
