On July 1, Year 1, PPI issued $10 million of 20-year, 8% bonds,
which paid interest semiannually. The
bonds were issued to yield 10%. What were the proceeds of the bond
issue?
Face Value of Bonds = $10,000,000
Annual Coupon Rate = 8.00%
Semiannual Coupon Rate = 4.00%
Semiannual Coupon = 4.00% * $10,000,000
Semiannual Coupon = $400,000
Time to Maturity = 20 years
Semiannual Period = 40
Annual YTM = 10%
Semiannual YTM = 5%
Issue Value of Bonds = $400,000 * PVIFA(5%, 40) + $10,000,000 *
PVIF(5%, 40)
Issue Value of Bonds = $400,000 * (1 - (1/1.05)^40) / 0.05 +
$10,000,000 / 1.05^40
Issue Value of Bonds = $400,000 * 17.15909 + $10,000,000 *
0.14205
Issue Value of Bonds = $8,284,136
So, proceeds of the bond issue is $8,284,136
