Answer #1

Bond Mature on May 15, 2026 so number of year remains in maturity from May 15 2016 is 10 year.

Par value = $1,000

Coupon rate = 3.875%

c.

Quoted price of bond is calculated in excel and screen shot provided below:

Quoted price of bond is $986.79.

b,

Number of days between May 15 to November 15 = 184

Nuber of days between May 15 and June 27 = 43 days.

Accrued interest = $19.375 × (43 / 184)

= 4.53

Accrued interest is $4.53.

a.

Dirty Price = Quoted price - Accrued interest

= $986.79 - $4.53

= $982.26

Dirty price is $982.26.
