Explain what you see from the pricing calculations. How do the two bonds differ?
Bond C
Given: n = Period which takes values from 0 to the nth period = 0,1,2,3 & 4
Cn = Coupon payment in the nth period = 10%*$1,000 = $100
YTM = interest rate or required yield = 9.6%
P = Par Value of the bond = $1,000
Bond Z
Bond Price = PV(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
Given: n = Period which takes values from 0 to the nth period = 0,1,2,3 & 4
Cn = Coupon payment in the nth period = 0%*$1,000 = $0.00
YTM = interest rate or required yield = 9.6%
P = Par Value of the bond = $1,000
