Answer:

8%

Explanation:

Calculation for what interest rate does Surething Inc. need to offer to make Hugh indifferent between investing in the two bonds

Using this formula

Interest rate=City of Heflin bond Percentage rate/(1 − Marginal tax rate)

Let plug in the formula

Interest rate=4.80% / (1 − 40%)

Interest rate=4.80%/60%

Interest rate= 8%

Therefore the interest rate that Surething Inc. need to offer to make Hugh indifferent between investing in the two bonds will be 8%
