Answer: Given: Maturity = 20 years, stock price = $40, Par value = $1000, Conversion price = $45, Annual coupon = 8%, Straight debt yield = 10%
Step 1: PV factor: 1 / (1+.10)20 = .1486
1-.1486 = .8514
Step 2: Coupon: 1000*8% = $80
Current bond price = Annual coupon / Straight debt yield
80 / .10 = $800
Step 3: 800 * .8514 = $681.12
PV : 1000 / (1+.10)20 =148.64
Floor price = 681.12 + 148.64
= $829.76 or $830 (Approximation)
None of the above.
