DonAnd | u could imagine the question specifically asks for the after-tax yield on the CORPORATE bond and silly me calculated for the municipal bond....ahhhh!!!! careless!!!!! |

I was very pleased with your notes and question bank. I especially like the mock exams because it helped to pull everything together.
