题目:

An investor is considering the purchase of two bonds. One of the bonds is tax-exempt and yields 4.5% while the other bond is taxable and yields 6.0%. If the two bonds are alike in all other characteristics, the marginal tax rate that would make the investor indifferent between the two bonds is closest to:()

B. 25.0%.

C. 27.0%.

答案:

参考答案:B
