Answer: $34.33
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that bond has a par value of $1,000, a current yield of 6.84 percent, and semiannual coupon payments and that the bond is quoted at 100.39.
Thee amount of each coupon payment goes thus:
We have to calculate the bond price which will be:
= $1000 × 100.39%
= $1000 × 1.39
= $1003.9
It should be noted that the current yield is calculated as the annual coupon amount divided by the bond price. This will be:
6.84% = annual coupon amount ÷ $1003.9
Annual coupon amount = $1003.9 × 6.84%
= $1003.9 × 0.0684
= $68.67
Each coupon amount will now be:
= $68.67/2
= $34.33
