Expert Solution

5) We can calculate the monthly payment by using the following formula in excel:-

=pmt(rate,nper,-pv,fv)

Here,

Pmt = Monthly payment 

Rate = 3.9%/12 = 0.325% (monthly)

Nper = 30*12 = 360 periods (monthly)

PV = $280,000

FV = $0

Substituting the values in formula:

= pmt(0.325%,360,-280000,0)

= $1,320.67

6) Present value of stock = $32.68

7) We can calculate the current value of bond by using the following formula in excel:-

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

Here,

PV = Current value of bond

Rate = 6.17%

Nper = 4 periods 

Pmt = $30

FV = $1,0000

Substituting the values in formula:

= -pv(6.17%,4,30,1000)

= $890.65

Working note:-

EAR = (1+rate/n)^n-1

= (1+6%/12)^12-1

= 1.0617 - 1

= 6.17%
