(Assume interest payments are semiannual.) (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.) Bond price Is this a discount or premium bond? Discount bond O Premium bond

Explanation / Answer

N = 15 years

Coupon Rate = 5.7%

Coupon Payment = 1,000

Market Rate = 8%

FV = 1,000

Using Financial Calculator:

PV = 803.13

As PV is less than FV, it is a discount bond

Part 2:

Down Payment = 1,200

Monthly Payment = 430

N = 12 * 4 = 48

Monthly Interest Rate = 7.5%/ 12 = 0.625%

We will calculate Present value of these monthly payment.

Adding Present value and down payment, we will get the cost of car then he can afford.

By using financial calculator:

PV = 17,784.10

He can afford a car of = 17,784.10 + 1,200

He can afford a car of = 18,984.10
