Answer:

Case A $581,757.17  

Case B $500,000.00  

Case C $416,910.21  

Explanation:

Current price of a bond

The market price of a bond can be computed using the pv formula in excel, which is given as :

=pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

Where rate is the yield to maturity on the bond divided by 2 since the bond in question is semi-annual interest paying bond i.e

Case A 4%/2=2%

Case B 6%/2=3%

Case C 8.5%/2=4.25%

The nper is the time to maturity of the bond multiplied by 2 for the same reason cited for yield to maturity  i.e 10 years *2=20

The pmt is the semi-annual coupon interest payable by the bond i.e 6%/2*$500,000=$15,000

The fv is the future value of the bond given as $500,000

Case A

=-pv(2%,20,15000,500000)

Pv= 581,757.17  

Case B

=-pv(3%,20,15000,500000)

PV=$$500,000.00  

Case C

=-pv(4.25%,20,15000,500000)

PV=$416,910.21

That statement would be false

Reducing the number of sellers means that the quantity of the products that available in the market is also reduced

This will cause the curve to move to the left ( it goes right if the quantity of the products is increased)
