Question
HMK Enterprises would like to raise
$10.0
million to invest in capital expenditures. The company plans to issue​ five-year bonds with a face value of
$1,000
and a coupon rate of
6.59%
​(annual payments). The following table summarizes the yield to maturity for​ five-year (annual-payment) coupon corporate bonds of various​ ratings:

6.19​%
6.36​%
6.59​%
6.96​%
7.54​%
 
a. Assuming the bonds will be rated​ AA, what will be the price of the​ bonds?
b. How much of the total principal amount of these bonds must HMK issue to raise
$10.0
million​ today, assuming the bonds are AA​ rated? (Because HMK cannot issue a fraction of a​ bond, assume that all fractions are rounded to the nearest whole​ number.)
c. What must be the rating of the bonds for them to sell at​ par?
d. Suppose that when the bonds are​ issued, the price of each bond is
$961.60.
