Answer:
Price will increase by $277.58
Explanation:
Market rate of Interest of a zero coupon bond can be determined by following formula
Market Rate of Interest = [ ( F / P )^(1/30) ] - 1
4.25% = [ ( $5000 / P )^(1/30) ] - 1
0.0425 + 1 = ( $5000 / P )^1/30
( 1.0425 )^30 = (( $5000 / P )^1/30)^30
3.4856 = $5000 / P
P = $5,000 / 3.4856
P = $1,434.46
Now Calculate the change in Price
Change in price = $1,434.46 - $1,156.88 = $277.58
Price will increase by $277.58
