Question

1. A seven year $1000 bond has nominal rate of 8% per annum, with semiannual coupons, redeemable at par. The current market rate is 6% compounded semiannually. Find the price of the bond. 2. A ten year callable bond with par value 1000 and annual coupons of 6%, has redemption value 1050 after 10 years, and is callable for 1050 after coupons are paid at end of years 6,7,8,9. The purchase price is 1025. At the end of which year (6,7,8,9,10) is the lowest annual yield going to occur? Give reasons. (You should not have to calculate the yields to determine the answer.) (ACSC 8020 students should know how to calculate the yield using BAII Plus, but this is not required.)
