Explanation:
Computation of Issue price of Bond:
Face value = $160000
Annual Interest Expense = $160000 x 4% = $6400
n = 10
Market Interest rate = 6%
Issue price of Bonds = Coupon Amount x Present Value Annuity factor (r,n) + Face Value x Present Value Interest Factor(r,n)
= $6400 x Present Value Annuity factor (6%,10) + $160000 x Present Value Interest Factor (6%,10)
= $6400 x 7.36009 + $160000 x 0.55839
= $47104.58 + $89342.4
= $136446.98 i.e. $136447
