Answer:B. One year from now Bond A's price will be higher than it is today.
Explanation:A Noncallable bond is a bond whose investment cannot be redeemed before its maturity date by the issuer, it can only be redeemed after the payment of a penalty.
The issuer of a noncallable bond makes itself vunerable to interest rate risk mainly because, at the issuance of the bond, it is locked to the interest rate it will pay only when the bond's maturity date is achieved.
Coupon rate is the rate at which a bond repay its owner,it can be annual.
Answer: The current price of the bond is $258.74
Explanation:
The present value of the bond is its Current Price
We would use the following formua to calculate the Current Price of the bond,
PV = 
+ A ![[\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+r)^{N} } }{r} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cfrac%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%281%2Br%29%5E%7BN%7D%20%7D%20%7D%7Br%7D%20%5D)
Where,
FV = Face value = $1,000
A = Coupon payment paid semi annually = (8% x 1000) / 2 = $40
r = Yield to Maturity = 16%
N = Number of periods = 15 years x 2 = 30 semi-annual periods
PV = 
+ 40 ![[\frac{1-\frac{1}{(1+0.16)^{30} } }{0.16} ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5B%5Cfrac%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%281%2B0.16%29%5E%7B30%7D%20%7D%20%7D%7B0.16%7D%20%5D)
PV = 258.73618
False is the answer.
Hope you have a great day :)
