Answer:
$23,021,880.00
Explanation:
The present value of the bond consists of the present value of semiannual coupon payment and present value of face value discounted using the market interest rate of 9% per year(but 4.5% semiannually)
present of face value=face value*discount factor
discount factor=1/(1+4.5%)^10=0.64393
present value of face value=$25,000,000*0.64393
=$16,098,250.00
Present value of semiannual coupon=coupon payment*discount factor
The discount factor is the present value of annuity of 4.5% for ten periods i.e 7.91272
coupon payment=$25,000,000*7%*6/12=$875000
present of coupon=7.91272
*$875000
=$6,923,630.00
total present value=$6,923,630.00+$16,098,250.00=$23,021,880.00
