= 846.6576207

Explanation:

The price of a bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash inflows expected from the bond discounted using the yield to maturity.

These cash flows include interest payment and redemption value

The price of the bond can be calculated as follows:

Step 1

PV of interest payment

Semi-annual coupon rate = 6%/2 = 3%

Semi-annual Interest payment =( 3%×$1000)= $30

Semi annual yield = 9%/2 = 4.5%

PV of interest payment

= A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

Note that the the bond was issued 3 years ago, therefore the time to maturity = 10 -3 = 7 years

A- interest payment, r- yield - 4.5%, n- no of periods- 2 × 7 = 14 periods

= 30× (1-(1.045)^(-7×2))/0.045)

= 30× 10.22282528

=$ 306.6847585

Step 2

PV of redemption value (RV)

PV = RV × (1+r)^(-n)

RV - redemption value- $1000, n- 7, r- 4.5%

= 1,000 × (1+0.045)^(-2×7)

= 539.97

Step 3

Price of bond = PV of interest payment + PV of RV

$ 306.68 + 539.97

= $846.6576207

Answer from: NathanaelLopez

Price to get if the bond is sold $846.66

Explanation:

Face value of the bond $1000

Cr = 6%

r = 9%

n = 10 but the bond was issued 3 years ago so it has 7 years remaining to maturity semiannual = 7*2 = 14

Coupons payments are made semi annualy

C = 6%*1000/2 = $30

r = 9%/2 = 4.5%

BV = C* 1-(1+r)^-n/r + FV/ (1+r)^n

=30* 1-(1+0.045)^-17/0.045 +1000/(1+0.045)^14

=306.6848+ 539.9729

=$846.66

The bond wil trade below par since coupon rate is lower than market rate

The business cycle is the periodic but irregular up-and-down movement in economic activity, measured by fluctuations in real gross domestic product (gdp) and other macroeconomic variables. a business cycle is typically characterized by four phases—recession, recovery, growth, and decline—that repeat themselves over time. economists note, however, that complete business cycles vary in length. the duration of business cycles can be anywhere from about two to twelve years, with most cycles averaging six years in length. some business analysts use the business cycle model and terminology to study and explain fluctuations in business inventory and other individual elements of corporate operations. but the term "business cycle" is still primarily associated with larger (industry-wide, regional, national, or even international) business trends.
