CMS Corporation's balance sheet as of today is as follows:
| Long-term debt (bonds, at par) | $10,000,000 |
| Preferred stock | 2,000,000 |
| Common stock ($10 par) | 10,000,000 |
| Retained earnings | 4,000,000 |
| Total debt and equity | $26,000,000 |
The bonds have a 8.1% coupon rate, payable semiannually, and a par value of $1,000. They mature exactly 10 years from today. The yield to maturity is 12%, so the bonds now sell below par. What is the current market value of the firm's debt?

We know that at YRM , Present value of the future cash inflows is the market price of the bond
Coupon Amount = $ 1000*8.1% /2 = $ 40.5( Sincew the Coupons are paid semi annually)
YTM = 12% ( OR ) 6% for 6 Months
No.of Coupon payments remaining = 10*2 = 20
No.of Bonds that the Company have = $ 100,00000/$ 1000
= 10000 bonds.
