Corporation has an outstanding bond with a coupon rate of 8.55 percent that matures in 12 years. The bond pays interest semiannually. What is the market price of a $1,000 face value bond if the yield to maturity is 10.13 percent?
Price of bond = Coupon * PVIFA (n,i)+ face value * PVIF (n,i)
Price of bond= (1,000*8.55%/2)* PVIFA (24 , 10.13%/2) + 1000* PVIF (24,10.13%/2)
Price of bond = 42.75 *13.711813546825 + 1000 *0.3054966438533150
= $ 891.68
Hence the correct answer is $ 891.68
