YTM = Yield to maturity/ cost of debt/ market rate of return on similarly priced bonds
RV = Redemption value of bond
n = number of years to maturity
<u>a. A bond's coupon rate is higher than it's yield to maturity, then the bond will sell for more than face value.</u>
Hence, if the company pays more interest than what is paid in the market on similarly priced bonds, such bonds shall sell at more than their face value.
