Suppose we are implementing a binary tree as a linked structure of BinaryTreeNode objects. Write a method that will print out all of the nodes of tree via an inorder traversal. You may assume that the class has a reference to a BinaryTreeNode object called root. In addition, your method may take a reference to a BinaryTreeNode object as a parameter.

A bond pays interest at 7 percent a year. The interest is taxed at a rate of 28 percent. What interest rate would a nontaxable bond need to pay to yield the same after-tax income as the taxable bond?

Its easier to work this problem with the rates in decimal form. So at the beginning divide the given rates by 100. At the end, convert the result to a percent by multiplying by 100. Let v = value of taxable bond. Taxable interest = 0.07v Tax on interest = 0.28*0.07v After-tax income — taxable interest — tax on interest = (0.07v) — (0.28 * 0.07v) = (1 — 0.28) * (0.07v) — 0.72 * 0.07v after factoring out 0.07v after doing the subtraction
