Expert Solution

1

                  K = N
Bond Price =∑ [(Annual Coupon)/(1 + YTM)^k]     +   Par value/(1 + YTM)^N
                   k=1
 
                  K =9
Bond Price =∑ [(14*1000/100)/(1 + 12/100)^k]     +   1000/(1 + 12/100)^9
                   k=1
 
Bond Price = 1106.6
Using Calculator: press buttons "2ND"+"FV" then assign
 
 
PMT = Par value * coupon %=1000*14/(100)
I/Y =12
N =9
FV =1000
CPT PV
 
Using Excel
=PV(rate,nper,pmt,FV,type)
=PV(12/(100),9,-14*1000/(100),-1000,)

                  K = N
Bond Price =∑ [(Annual Coupon)/(1 + YTM)^k]     +   Par value/(1 + YTM)^N
                   k=1
 
                  K =10
Bond Price =∑ [(14*1000/100)/(1 + 12/100)^k]     +   1000/(1 + 12/100)^10
                   k=1
 
Bond Price = 1113
Using Calculator: press buttons "2ND"+"FV" then assign
 
 
PMT = Par value * coupon %=1000*14/(100)
I/Y =12
N =10
FV =1000
CPT PV
 
Using Excel

                  K = N
Bond Price =∑ [(Annual Coupon)/(1 + YTM)^k]     +   Par value/(1 + YTM)^N
                   k=1
 
                  K =10
1091.96 =∑ [(8*1000/100)/(1 + YTM/100)^k]     +   1000/(1 + YTM/100)^10
                   k=1
 
YTM% = 6.7
Using Calculator: press buttons "2ND"+"FV" then assign
 
PV =-1091.96
PMT = Par value * coupon %=1000*8/(100)
 
N =10
FV =1000
CPT I/Y
 
Using Excel
=RATE(nper,pmt,pv,fv,type,guess)
=RATE(10,-8*1000/(100),1091.96,-1000,,)
