Answer:

a. rate or return bond 1 <u>6.6%</u> bond 2 <u>7.71%</u>

b. Does the higher-coupon bond give a higher rate of return? <u>yes</u>

Explanation:

bond 1 has a coupon rate of 5.4%

bond 2 has a coupon rate of 8.2%

yield to maturity formula = {C + [(Face value - market value) / n]} / [(Face value + market value) / 2]

assume bond 1's face value = $1,000

coupon = 54

n = 13

YTM = 7.5%

0.075 = {54 + [(1,000 - M) / 13]} / [(1,000 + M) / 2]

0.075 x  [(1,000 + M) / 2] = 54 +  [(1,000 - M) / 13]

0.075 x (500 + 0.5M) = 54 + 76.92 - 0.0769M

37.50 + 0.0375M = 130.92 - 0.0769M

0.0375M + 0.0769M = 130.92 - 37.50

0.1144M = 93.42

M = 93.42 / 0.1142 = $818.04

rate of return = $54 / $818.04 = 0.066 = 6.6%

assume bond 2's face value = $1,000

coupon = 82

n = 13

YTM = 7.5%

0.075 = {82 + [(1,000 - M) / 13]} / [(1,000 + M) / 2]

0.075 x  [(1,000 + M) / 2] = 82 +  [(1,000 - M) / 13]

0.075 x (500 + 0.5M) = 82 + 76.92 - 0.0769M

37.50 + 0.0375M = 158.92 - 0.0769M

0.0375M + 0.0769M = 158.92 - 37.50

0.1144M = 121.42

M = 121.42 / 0.1142 = $1,063.22

rate of return = $82 / $1,063.22 = 0.07712 = 7.71%

bank statement      3,881.14

deposit in transit   9,555.88

oustanding check<u> (6,142.88)  </u>

bank statment        7.294,14

From the bank accout we deduct the outstanding check and increase by the deposit in transit.

accounting        922.55

interst                   77

service charge    (38.22)

note collected  6,815.00

check              <u>   (482. 19)  </u>

accounting      7.294,14‬

the interest and service charge, the note colected and we also adjsut for mistake like the check not deducted.

in both we must reach the same final answer.
