Analyze Energy Sources Lab

Everything people do in their daily lives involves the consumption of resources—particularly energy. With respect to energy, electricity is one of the most important resources consumed and also one of the highest in demand. Traditionally, fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas, and oil have dominated the U.S. energy mix; however, as it is well-known, carbon-emitting energy sources are very detrimental to the environment and are contributing to global warming. Fortunately, alternative energy resources such as solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal power are becoming more efficient and prevalent in today’s energy economy.

The school you would like to attend costs $100,000. To help finance your education, you need to choose whether or not to sell any of your 500 shares of Apple stock you bought five years ago, 100 Apple bonds (each with a $1,000 face value and a 3.25% coupon rate) that are five years from their 10-year maturity date, or a combination of both.
