The group of answer choices are missing. Following is the complete question.
A 3-year bond with a 10% coupon rate and $1000 face value yield-to-maturity of 8%. Assuming annual coupon payments, calculate the price of the bond. Group of answer choices
A. $857.96
B. $951.96
C. $1000.00
D. $1051.54
Answer:
The answer is d. $1051.54
Explanation:
To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. The bonds are annual bonds so the coupon payment is per year.
Coupon Payment = 1000 * 0.10 = $100
Total periods = 3
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 100 * [( 1 - (1+0.08)^-3) / 0.08] + 1000 / (1+0.08)^3
Bond Price = $1051.54
