Answer: $1427.95

Explanation:

If Dr. Smith follows her financial adviser’s advice, the maximum amount that she should pay for the bond will be calculated thus:

This question can be solved using Excel.

Face value = $1500

Coupon rate = 10%

Years left = 3

Coupon = 10% × $1500 = $150

Yield to maturity = 12%

The bond price will be:

= PV(12%,3,-150,-1500)

= PV(0.12,3,-150,-1500)

= 1427.95

The bond price is $1427.95
