Answer to Problem 10PS

The prices of zero coupon bonds, 8% and 10% coupon bondsat maturity are $463.19, $1,000 and $1,134.20 respectively

Explanation of Solution

Given Information: The rate of return, maturity period is given

The bond price is the discounted value of future cash flow in the current period. It is the sum assured of the current values of all. The price of the bond value is contradictory to the yield to maturity. Bonds are traded at a price of different face value as the time lapses.

Holding period return is the total value yield on an investment during the time it is held.

  Price=t=1TCoupon (1+r)t+ParValue(1+r)t

r= rate of return

T= the maturity period

(i)At zero coupon bond, the price is,

  Price=ParValue (1+r)T=$1,000 (1+8%) 10=$1,0002.16=$463.19

So, the price of zero coupon bond is $463.19

(ii)Calculate the price of coupon bond (8%),

  Price=ParValue (1+r)T=$80 (1+8%)1+$80 (1+8%)2+$80 (1+8%)3+......+$80 (1+8%) 10=$74.074+$68.587+$63.506+.....+$500.248=$1,000

So, the coupon bond price (8%) is $1,000

(iii)Calculate the price of coupon bond (10%),

  Price=ParValue (1+r)T=$100 (1+8%)1+$100 (1+8%)2+$100 (1+8%)3+......+$100 (1+8%) 10=$92.592+$85.733+$79.383+.....+$509.512=$1,134.20
