🗑
NPV>0   Go ahead with purchase bc it's adding value. The NPV>0 means the project is earning more than the rate of 17%. 17% is the measure of the opportunity cost of investing in other projects of similar risk.  
🗑
Dividend Yield   Dividend payment/share price  
🗑
Identifying Discount/Premium   We know bond will sell at a discount bc it has a coupon rate of 7% when the market requires 8%.
