A firm raises capital by selling $20,000 worth of debt with flotation costs equal to 3% of its par value. If the debt matures in 5 years and has an annual coupon interest rate of 7%, what is the bond's YTM?
Cost of debt |
K = N |
Bond Price *(1-flotation %) =∑ [(Annual Coupon)/(1 + YTM)^k] + Par value/(1 + YTM)^N |
k=1 |
K =5 |
1000*(1-0.03) =∑ [(7*1000/100)/(1 + YTM/100)^k] + 1000/(1 + YTM/100)^5 |
k=1 |
YTM = 7.75% |
