If investors require a 2.9 percent return on a 30-year discount bond with a $10000 face (par) value, what is the price that they are willing to pay? State the answer as a number with 2 decimals without $ sign.
Price of a discount bond = Face Value/((1+required return)^years to maturity)
= $10,000/((1+2.9%)^30)
= $4,241.69
$4,241.69 is the price that the investor will be willing to pay.
