ABC Co. issued 1 million 6 percent annual coupon bonds that mature in 10 years. The face value is $1,000 per bond. What are the expected cash flows from one of these bonds?
Given about ABC Co.'s Bond,
Face value = $1000
Coupon rate = 6%
bond matures in 10 years.
So, Bonds cash flows include yearly Coupon payment and Face value payment at the maturity.
So, for this bond, yearly coupon payment = 6% of 1000 = $60
and at maturity, cash flow = coupon + face value = 60+1000 = $1060
Hence bond will pay $60 starting year 1 end to year 9 end and will pay $1060 at the end of year 10 i.e. at maturity.
