Explanation / Answer

1.

n = 10years

coupon = 9%

Case A - yield 9%

Issue price = 110000*1000 = 110000000

Case B - 7%

Issue price = 110000*1140.47 =

Case C - 11%

Issue price = 110000 8882.215 = 97043690

Question 2:

n = 3*2 (semi-annual) = 6

Coupon = 0.08/2 = 0.04

Case A - 6%

No. of bonds = 515000/1054.17 = 489 (rounded)

Case B - 8%

No. of shares = 515000/1000 = 515

Case C - 10%

No. of shares = 515000/949.24 = 543
