Answer:
current price of the bond is $1,232.15
Explanation:
given data
time N = 20 year
annual coupon bonds = 7.5%
future value = $1,000
interest rate = 5.5%
NPER = 19 year
solution
we will use here Present value formula to get current price of the bond.
so here PMT will be
PMT = future value × rate
PMT = 1000 × 7.5 %
PMT = $75
so we use here formula in excel that is
= -PV(Rate,NPER,PMT,FV,type)
put here value and we get
after solving we get current price of the bond is $1,232.15
