Q1-Assume a healthcare organization sold bonds that have a 10 year maturity, a 12% coupon rate with annual payments, a $1000 par value:
a-suppose that 2 years after the bonds were issued, the required interest rate fell to 7%. What would be the bond's value?
b-Suppose the 2 years after the bonds were issued, the required interest rate rose to 13%. What would be the bonds value?
c-What would be the value of the bonds 3 years after issue in each scenario above, assuming the interest rate stayed steady at either 7% or 13%?
Please show all the formulas used for solving each question & do not use excel to solve for the above questions.
a-suppose that 2 years after the bonds were issued, the required interest rate fell to 7%. What would be the bond's value
time to maturity = 8years
coupon = 1000 x 12% = $120
Maturity Value = $ 1000
yield = 7%
Price of bond = coupon x PVAF(7%,8years) + maturity value / (1+7%)8
Price of bond = 120 x 5.9713 + 1000/(1.07)8
Price of bond = $1,298.57
b-suppose that 2 years after the bonds were issued, the required interest rate rose to 13%. What would be the bond's value
time to maturity = 8years
coupon = 1000 x 12% = $120
Maturity Value = $ 1000
yield = 13%
Price of bond = coupon x PVAF(13%,8years) + maturity value / (1+13%)8
Price of bond = 120 x 4.7988 + 1000/(1.13)8
Price of bond = $952.02
c suppose that 3 years after the bonds were issued, the required interest rate fell to 7%. What would be the bond's value
time to maturity = 7years
coupon = 1000 x 12% = $120
Maturity Value = $ 1000
yield = 7%
Price of bond = coupon x PVAF(7%,7years) + maturity value / (1+7%)7
Price of bond = 120 x 5.3893 + 1000/(1.07)7
Price of bond = $1,269.47
suppose that 3 years after the bonds were issued, the required interest rate rose to 13%. What would be the bond's value
time to maturity = 7years
coupon = 1000 x 12% = $120
Maturity Value = $ 1000
yield = 13%
Price of bond = coupon x PVAF(13%,7years) + maturity value / (1+13%)7
Price of bond = 120 x 4.4226 + 1000/(1.13)7
Price of bond = $ 955.77
Give a thumbs up if satisfied. Thanks :)
