    3.5 percent

    Explanation:

    Data provided in the question

    Invested amount = $15,000

    Annual interest rate tax-exempt = 3.5%

    Corporate bonds annual interest = 4.75%

    So after considering the marginal tax rate of 32%, the after tax yield on the municipal bonds is the same as annual interest rate tax - exempt i. e 3.5%

    So all other information should be ignored.
