Answer:

Current bond price  is $891.74

Explanation:

Coupon rate: 7%

Tenor (Nper): 13 years

Par value: $1,000

YTM (discounting rate): 8.4%

Coupon received annually (PMT) = $1,000 * 7% = $70

Current bond price  = present value of coupon received annually + present value of bond

To calculate PV of coupon received, we use excel in formula PV(discounting rate ,Nper,- PMT) = PV(8.4%,13,-70) = $541.30

or calculate manually = 70/(1+8.4%)^13+70/(1+8.4%)^12+…..+70/(1+8.4%)^1 =  $541.30

present value of bond = 1000/(1+8.4%)^13 = $350.44

Current bond price   = $541.30 + $350.44 = $891.74

N76 [4]

Answer:

$46.43

Explanation:

Calculation for Below what stock price level would you get a margin call

First step is to calculate the Loan amount

Loan amount=(100 shares × $130 × 0.5

Loan amount= $6,500 × 0.5 = $3,250

Now let calculate Stock price level

0.30 = (100P $3,250)/100P

30 - P = 100P - $3,250

30-100P= - $3,250

-70P = -$3,250

P=$3,250/70

P = $46.43

Therefore Below what stock price level would you get a margin call will be $46.43
