3. Assume the original maturity a bond with face value $1000 is 8 years. The annualized
yield to maturity for the bond is 6.25% and its annual coupon rate is 7.5% being
2
semiannually paid. The bond was issued on 8/1/2015, and bought on 12/1/2017.
Compute the following:
(1) dirty price, (2) clean price and (3) accrued interest. (7 points)

I calculated 1058.76 for dirty price, 1046.26 for clean and 12.5 for accrued interest.

I understand this problem, what I don't get is how to calculate the accrued interest because I don't know how to determine the intervals of the semi annual interest payments.

Yeah I know that much, thank you, I'm having trouble just discerning the days since the last coupon payment from the dates given is all.

Ok.

Ty

Ran another OCR this weekend with my girl, a 5k like we all ran back in NE in July

Thanks brother! Was a lot of fun

It was slower, it was my gf's first event like this so she more or less set the pace while I motivated her to push herself

Great fun though, can't wait to have the IE crew back for the warrior dash in July

Holy cow

Anastasia

😍 😍 😍

@Ariel-OKC So happy for you!!

@Alexander Volk#7256 Beyond that being your opinion, there is nothing substantial suggesting that having a cup of coffee before you go lift is retarded.

Unless maybe you have an incredibly weak heart that doesn't need the added strain.

Literally nothing wrong with it whatsoever.

To Jacob, yes, a stimulant might give you a better workout if it gets you "in the zone" so to speak. That's literally the entire point of those pre-workout mixes.

Most generally have creatine mixes, which would be the only thing that may ACTUALLY boost your lifts, everything else is just a concentration boost.

They did.

Doing heavy incline bench after regular bench each push day helped my regular bench press tremendously, idk why.

something to try, best people to talk to for increasing bench would be the plers though.

Joints?

That dude is a monster

I don't get why you would need to build volume for the sake of volume

when I ran SS I was able to progress so fast, and likely faster than I would have with 3x7

3x8 too

My bench progressed faster with volume, whereas my squat progressed much faster with 3x5*

@Suomi Stronk Good job on the cut my man, takes some good discipline

@Der Seeteufel - SD When I started I weighed 135 lbs and couldn't eat worth a damn, ended up buying Optimum Nutrition mass gainer powder in order to just drink my calories. I imagine everyone here is gonna give you grief about "noooo get it from whole foods" which granted, is preferable, but if you have too much trouble getting that many calories from normal food alone, the shakes are the way to go.

no

Creatine is great, noticable difference in strength if you are supplementing it correctly.

Just do it light heartedly and laugh

Don't get all serious you'll look silly

Patrick looks like a stud walking back with that swing in his step and that suit jacket

That was badass

And then "were not goin anywhere, bud <:chad:359013583469805568> "

Lol thanks guys, I wasn't even gonna take a picture like that (I'm not that vain irl) but my gf and mom were like "w.e you're here, might not be again, go do it" haha

Some canadian guys thought it was hilarious and they took some shots too 😂

At the iron temple repping his clothes as we speak <:onionsun:394101074526601226>

@Roger Cheeto#8938 Awesome brother!! Finishing those races always feels like such an awesome accomplishment.

It's such a crazy place, indescribable. And pictures do it no justice. The views are tremendous.

@Suomi Stronk Looks like your cut has went very nicely my brother. Looking like a Spartan.

J. Pete already getting pretty BTFO in those comments

@Robtheroman Still using your guys' videos from time to time to get amped up for the gym. Hope you all keep making those, they're awesome

Cod?

Haha

holy cows

"I do believe that is a maximum effort"

ya i'd say

62 miles very nice

I miss riding bike.

Looks good, I'll see about getting a shirt or two off there when it gets closer to the summer

lol what a guy

Why haven't I subbed this guy yet

this is quality stuff

@Punisher so long as you don't hop on any PED'S, heavy compounds are always going to be optimal for muscle growth. Once you are lifting fairly heavy and your diet is in tune with the work load you're doing every week you can throw in accessory work as you see fit.

@Zyklonius B Gassem-LA yes sounds like overworking. Ramp up the carb/overall calorie intake or scale something back.

Do Starting Strength 3x5 and eat like a college football player.

@Der Seeteufel - SD

@Zyklonius B Gassem-LA I squat everyday too but that means different things, I only go 3 days a week. Are you squatting 5 days a week?

Seems like way too much to me. You're doing oly lifting 3 x a week too? What's the point.

Recovery time is paramount.

Won't work if you have no recovery time.

My messages are duplicating and taking forever to send

I give you props for getting in there 5x a day doing strenous days like that. And hell if you're the genetic 1% and it works keep at it. Props.

But for most it wouldn't be optimal.

@Der Seeteufel - SD And nice man, keep going.

That's the exactly right attitude brother, and we're all here to support you jumping back into it. Glad to have ya.

Squatted 325 for 3x5 and benched 245 for almost 3x5. Hoping to get up to 400 lb squat before the semester ends.

Hah, if you want

You looked like a solid dude in one of the pics i saw of you tide

pic mightv been in the mcgoyver server

how tall ?

ah yeah. Damn. Suomi and I are 5'9 manlet squat master race.

lol

What's the criteria for it? I'm hoping to 3x5 405 by end of the semester.

I think I could probably 1 rep it already too or pretty soon here.

Either way, You're all on. First unofficial IE mine's better than yours lifting competition is a go.

I'm 180 atm and if I'm doing my linear progression I try for 10 lbs every lifting session til stall, then drop down by a certain percentage and build back up/repeat.

Why risk bringing all that into an apartment when you can get a cheap gym membership?

Serious question, not trying to be an ass.

I'd say at the very minimum you would need that thick rubber material that most gyms put over the cement floor, and then in addition to that you would have the wood platform on top.

You could get away with a bench press setup with an apartment obviously but I wouldn't deadlift that's for sure.

Would be awesome to have that home setup, to me the risk seems to outweigh the postive.

The other thing too, is that for most, exercising ebbs and flows as far as motivation is concerned, and if you ever hit a wall with your training/get bored/take a break, it's going to be an eye sore sitting in your apartment.

Just as a side thought I guess.

Not an eyesore, but take up a lot of space.

Even thinking about that makes me naseuous

That's Awesome!!!

Lots of volume lol

If you're pushing those numbers you're doing something right obviously.

Nice numbers.

What are you expecting to happen ? It's really hard to notice core results be it strength or hypertrophy related.

One thing you could try is literally flexing your abs as hard as you can while you're doing it, breathe the air out at the beginning too which will provide a much stronger "crunch" feeling

You'll be able to do it for less time however, just do more

Most fit people can do things like planks forever, idk what you're going for lol. Do em longer if you want, or try doing them weighted, at least the normal, not side planks.

That promo is badass.
