Jimenez Enterprises issued 9%, 8-year, $2,689,000 par value bonds that pay interest semiannually on October 1 and April 1. The bonds are dated April 1, 2014, and are issued on that date. The discount rate of interest for such bonds on April 1, 2014, is 10%.
What cash proceeds did Jimenez receive from the issuance of the bonds?
Issue price of bonds = Present value of Face amount + Present value of cash interest payment
Present value of face amount = Face amount / (1+r)nxt
Present value of cash interest payment = Semi annual cash interest X [1 - {1/(1 + r)nxt }] / r
Where, Face amount = $ 2,689,000
Semi annual cash interest payment = $ 2,689,000 X 9% X 6/12 = $ 121,005
r = semi annual market rate of interest = 10% / 2 = 5% or 0.05
n = Tenure of bonds in years = 8
t = times of compounding in a year = Semi annual = 2
Present value of face amount = $ 2,689,000 / (1+0.05)8x2
= $ 2,689,000 / (1.05)16
= $ 2,689,000 / 2.1828746
= $ 1,231,862
Present value of cash interest payment = $ 121,005 X [ 1 - {1 /(1 + 0.05)8x2 }]/ 0.05
= $ 121,005 X [1 - {1/(1.05)16 }] / 0.05
= $ 121,005 X [1 - 1/2.1828746] / 0.05
= $ 121,005 X [1.1828746/ 2.1828746] / 0.05
= $ 121,005 X 10.8377696
= $ 1,311,424
Issue price of bonds (Cash proceeds on issue of bonds) = $ 1,231,862 + $ 1,311,424 = $ 2,543,286.
Issue price of bonds (Cash proceeds on issue of bonds) = $ 1,231,862 + $ 1,311,424 = $ 2,543,286.
