Even though most corporate bonds in the United States make coupon payments semiannually, bonds issued elsewhere often have annua

Answer:

€928.46

Explanation:

Since it was hinted that bonds issued outside of  the United States pay coupons annually, it is expected that the bonds issued in Germany pay annual coupons, and its price is computed below using the bond price formula, excel PV function, and financial calculator:

Bond price=face value/(1+r)^n+annual coupon*(1-(1+r)^-n/r

face value=€1,000

r=yield to maturity=8.7%

n=number of annual coupons in 10 years=10

annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=€1,000*7.6%=€76

bond price=1000/(1+8.7%)^10+76*(1-(1+8.7%)^-10/8.7%

bond price=1000/(1.087)^10+76*(1-(1.087)^-10/0.087

bond price=1000/2.30300797+76*(1-0.43421474)/0.087

bond price=1000/2.30300797+76*0.56578526/0.087

bond price= 434.21+494.25= €928.46

Excel PV function:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

=-pv(8.7%,10,76,1000)

pv=€928.46

Financial calculator:

N=10

PMT=76

I/Y=8.7

FV=1000

CPT PV=€928.46
