Answer:

Coupon (R) = 6.8% x 10,000 = $680

Face value (FV) = $10,000

Number of times coupon is paid in a year (m) = 2

No of years to maturity = 8 years

Yield to maturity (Kd) = 8% = 0.08

Po = R/2(1- (1 + r/m)-nm) +  FV/ (1+r/m)n m

                      r/m

Po = 680/2(1-(1+0.08/2)-8x2) + 10,000/(1 + 0.08/2 )8x2

                          0.08/2                              

Po = 340(1 - (1 + 0.04)-16)    + 10,000/(1 + 0.04)16

                      0.04                            

Po = 340(1-0.5339) + 10,000/1.8730

                 0.04

Po = 3,961.85 + 5,339.03

Po = $9,300.88

Explanation:

The current market price of a bond is a function of the present value of semi-annual coupon and present value of the face value. The present value of semi-annual coupon is obtained by multiplying the coupon by the present value of annuity factor at 8% for 8 years. The present value of face value is obtained by discounting the face value at the discount factor for 8 years. The addition of the two gives the present value of the bond. All these explanations have been captured by the formula.

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

A) initial outlay = $150 million

Cash flow year 1 = [($30 - $25) x 0.6] + $25 = $28

Cash flow year 2 = [($30 - $25) x 0.6] + $25 = $28

Cash flow year 3 = [($30 - $25) x 0.6] + $25 = $28

Cash flow year 4 = [($30 - $25) x 0.6] + $25 + ($25 x 60%) + $50 = $93

B) Using a financial calculator, NPV = -$16.85 million

C) cash flow year 4 should increase by $24.667 million, meaning that the selling price must increase by $$24.667/0.6 = $41.11 million

minimum selling price $25 + $41.11 = $66.11 million
