Calculate the fair present values of the following bonds, all of which pay interest semiannually, have a face value of $1,000, have 10 years remaining to maturity, and have a required rate of return of 15.5 percent.
a. The bond has a 7.2 percent coupon rate. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e. g., 32.16)) Fair present value $
b. The bond has a 9.2 percent coupon rate. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. (e. g., 32.16)) Fair present value $
c. The bond has a 15.5 percent coupon rate. (Do not round intermediate calculations.) Fair present value $

Explanation:

A)

CR  Semi annually    7.2/23.6%

Semi Annual Cash-flow 1000*3.6%  36

Rate of Return          15.57.75%

Present value of bond at 7.75% semmi annually return  

Due to series of c/F apply annuity                                 1-(1+0.0775)^-20

Due to one single  c/F apply compound                        1/(1+0.0775)^20

  No of              Cash flows  Discount facto5 @ 7.75% annuity  Present Value

Cashflows                                    P=R*(1-(1+I )^-n) / i  

   20                      36                  9.966011947                        358.7764301

                                                    Present values    581.4274982

B)

CR  Semi annually    9.2/24.6%

Semi Annual Cash-flow 1000*4.6%  46

Rate of Return          15.57.75%

Present value of bond at 7.75% semmi annually return  

  No of              Cash flows  Discount facto5 @ 7.75% annuity  Present Value

Cashflows                                    P=R*(1-(1+I )^-n) / i

      1                1000          0.222651068                         222.6510682

                                  Present Value                          681.0876177

C)

There is no transaction cost and CR = IRR thats why the present value of the bond will be equal to face value of bond

CR =  15.5%

IRR = 15.5%
