Price of the Bond
The Price of the Bond is the Present Value of the Coupon Payments plus the Present Value of the face Value
Face Value of the bond = $1,000
Semi-annual Coupon Amount = $30 [$1,000 x 6.00% x ½]
Semi-annual Yield to Maturity = 3.00% [6.00% x ½]
Maturity Period = 30 Years [15 Years x 2]
Therefore, the Price of the Bond = Present Value of the Coupon Payments + Present Value of the face Value
= $30[PVIFA 3.00%, 30 Years] + $1,000[PVIF 3.00%, 30 Years]
= [$30 x 19.60044] + [$1,000 x 0.41199]
= $588.01 + $411.99
= $1,000.00
“The Bond Price will be $1,000.00”
If the Coupon rate of the Bond (6.00%) is equal to the Yield to maturity of the Bond (6.00%) of the Bond, then the Price of the bond will be equal to the Par Value of the Bond ($1,000)
NOTE
-The formula for calculating the Present Value Annuity Inflow Factor (PVIFA) is [{1 - (1 / (1 + r)n} / r], where “r” is the Yield to Maturity of the Bond and “n” is the number of maturity periods of the Bond.
-The formula for calculating the Present Value Inflow Factor (PVIF) is [1 / (1 + r)n], where “r” is the Yield to Maturity of the Bond and “n” is the number of maturity periods of the Bond.
