Assuming the second CPI should be January 2016, not Jan 2015:
To calculate the rate of inflation (rate of change in CPI)
( CPI(2016) - CPI(2015) ) ÷ CPI(2015) x 100%
(236.916 - 233.707) ÷ 236.916 x100% = 1.35%

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer

Price of bond = 17.96825

Bond price = ∑(C / (1+YTM)^{n} )+  P /(1+i)^{n}

where

            n = no. of years

            C = Coupon payments

            YTM = interest rate or required yield

             P = Par Value of the bond

put values in above equation

  price = (5.66%/2) × 2000 × (0.31746) + ( 2000 ÷ 4.595×10^{18})

            = 17.96825

nignag [31]

Answer:

9.78%

Explanation:

The yield to maturity can be determined using the rate formula in excel as shown below:

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

nper is number of times coupon interest would be paid,which is 12 years multiplied by 2(semi-annual interest payment) i.e 24

pmt is the semi-annual interest which is $1000*8%/2=$40

pv is the current price of the bond at $876.40

fv is the face value of the bond which is $1000

=rate(24,40,-876.40,1000)=4.89%

Semi-annual yield is 4.89%

Annual yield is 4.89%*2=9.78%

The yield to maturity on these bonds is approximately 9.78%
