4、Correct answer is B

"Understanding Yield Spreads," Frank J. Fabozzi

2008 Modular Level I, Vol. 5, pp. 359-361

Study Session 15-65-i

compute the after-tax yield of a taxable security and the tax-equivalent yield of a tax-exempt security

The indifference point would be the tax rate that satisfies the equation: 6.0%(1 - T) = 4.5%. Solving for T, the marginal tax rate = 25%.
