Answer:
$427,011.92
Explanation:
We use the present value formula i.e to be shown in the attached spreadsheet
Given that,
Future value = $0
Rate of interest = 7.5%
NPER = 15 years
PMT = $45,000
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
And, in type we write the 1 instead of 0
So, after solving this, the present value is $427,011.92
The price elasticity of the bond, based on the years to maturity and the required rate of return is -0.494
<h3>How to find the price elasticity of he bond?</h3><h3 />
First, find the new price of the bond:
= 1, 000 / ( 1 + 15%)⁵
= $497
The change in price:
= (497 - 567) / 567
= -12.3%
Then find the percentage change in the required rate of return:
= (15 - 12%) / 12
= 25%
The price elasticity of the bond is:
= -12.3% / 25%
= -0.494
