compute the price of a 4.6% coupon bond with 10 years left to maturity and a market interest rate of 7% assume interest payments are semi annual
Using financial calculator
Input: FV= 1000
PMT= 4.6%*1000/2 = $23
N= 10*2 = 20
I/Y = 7%/2 = 3.5%
Find PV as -829.45
In excel it can be computed as =PV(3.5%,20,23,1000)
Hence the price of the bond is $829.45
