The bond has a face value of $1,000 with a coupon rate of 6% paid semi-annually. Also, the bond will mature in next 4 years with a required return of 5%.
Bonds are issued to raise funds for the company. The important characteristic of a bond is that it has a maturity value which is the value the bondholders will get at the end of the maturity period. Also, some bonds carry coupon rate which means the bondholders will get a regular interest cash flow on that bond.
The yield to maturity (YTM) of the bond is the required rate of return investors expect on holding the bond till the maturity period.
Where,
INT = coupon payments made
N = number of periods
M = Maturity or Face value
rd = rate of return
Vd = Value of the bond

- Krystian Inc. issued 10-year bonds with a face value of $100,000 and a stated rate of 4% when the market rate was 6%. Interest was paid semi-annually. Calculate and explain the timing of the cash flows the purchaser of the bonds (the investor) will receive throughout the bond term. Would an investor be willing to pay more or less than face value for this bond?arrow_forwardBuner Corp’s outstanding bonds, which has a face value of $1,000, have 6 years remaining to maturity.
