I don't get the difference between the effective annual interest rate and nominal rate, how does it make the answer for this question any different??
the question is: you are considering a 10 year 1,000 par value bond. its coupon rate is 9 percent, and interest is paid semi-annually. If you require an "effective" annual interest rate (not a nominal rate) of 8.16 percent, then how much should you be willing to pay for the bond?
I used a financial calculator to do the following:
since its semi-annual i calculated payment as (PMT): .09/2 x 1000 = 45
Number of years (N) = 10 x 2 = 20
Interest (I/Y) = 8.16/2 = 4.08
Future Value (FV) = 1000
and i computed PV which equals = 1,056.68
PV is max price investor is willing to pay for the bond, did i get it right, and how is effective vs. nominal interest rate make my answer any different? rather, what does it even mean?

I've heard of lots of people doing this because
1. The Canadian dollar is stronger right now
2. Cars are already cheaper in the states, and with the strong Canadian dollar, this makes them even cheaper for Canadians.

I've also heard that there is no warranty if you do this?

So is it possible to do this with no drawbacks?

Hi my dog is a husky terrier (a mix) she is 4 years old. I want to breed her but I don't know what step I should take first. I know I have to find her a mate, but when I do then what should I do then? (I know I should contact my vet to make sure my dog is able to have puppies, and to make sure i have all the info about the mate) but once I get that what should I do next? Does my dog have to be in "heat" when I decided to breed her? I really want to make sure she will be fine and healthy before I actually breed her. So I'm just looking for some advice. Thank you.

He didn't invent evil. So that he is dead? What difference does it make when I live in a humanity that never learns the hard lessons of history and is armed with nuclear weapons ready to create a conflagation that will make World War II, and its Holocaust, look like some ridiculous picnic? I fear this humanity. Feedback, please.
