Who is better at multi-tasking? in business, employees are often asked to perform a complex task when their atten-tion is divided (i.e., multi-tasking). human factors (may 2014) published a study designed to determine whether video game players are better than non–video game play-ers at multi-tasking. each in a sample of 60 college stu-dents was classified as a video game player or a non-player. participants entered a street crossing simulator and were asked to cross a busy street at an unsigned intersec-tion. the simulator was designed to have cars traveling at various high rates of speed in both directions. during the crossing, the students also performed a memory task as a distraction. two variables were measured for each student: (1) a street crossing performance score (measured out of 100 points) and (2) a memory task score (measured out of 20 points). the researchers found no differences in either the street crossing performance or memory task score of video game players and non-gamers. “these results,” say the researchers, “suggest that action video game players [and non-gamers] are equally susceptible to the costs of dividing attention in a complex task”

Bond x is noncallable and has 20 years to maturity, a 7% annual coupon, and a $1,000 par value. your required return on bond x is 10%; if you buy it, you plan to hold it for 5 years. you (and the market) have expectations that in 5 years, the yield to maturity on a 15-year bond with similar risk will be 9.5%. how much should you be willing to pay for bond x today? (hint: you will need to know how much the bond will be worth at the end of 5 years.) do not round intermediate calculations. round your answer to the nearest cent.
