- An investor has $621,000 to invest in bonds. Bond A yields an average of 8% and the bond B yields 7%. The investor requires that at least 5 times as much money be invested in bond A as in bond B. You must invest in these bonds to maximize his return. This can be set up as a linear programming problem. Introduce the decision variables: x= dollars invested in bond Ay= dollars invested in bond B Compute x+y. $ . Round to the nearest cent. Investor Matt has $152,000 to invest in bonds. Bond A yields an average of 9.2% and the bond B yields 8.4%. Matt requires that at least 4 times as much money be invested in bond A as in bond B. You must invest in these bonds to maximize his return. What is the maximum return? $ per year. Round to the nearest cent. Investor Dan has $607,000 to invest in bonds.
