Suppose a firm is issuing bonds. Each bond has a face amount of $1,000, a stated rate of 8%, and a 10-year term. Coupon (interest) payments are made annually. When the bonds are issued, the market rate for similar bonds is 8%. After a year, the bond is selling for $1,015. What is the yield to maturity?
Suppose Hillard Manufacturing sold an issue of bonds with a 10-year maturity, a $1,000 par value, a 10% coupon rate, and semiannual interest payments. Two years after the bonds were issued, the going rate of interest on bonds such as these fell to 6%. At what price would the bonds sell? Suppose that, 2 years after the initial offering, the going interest rate had risen to 12%. At what price would the bonds sell? Suppose, as in part a, that interest rates fell to 6% 2 years after the issue date. Suppose further that the interest rate remained at 6% for the next 8 years. What would happen to the price of the bonds over time? Please provide calculation in excel.

For a company, you plan to buy the following bond: Time to maturity, 6 years; coupon rate, 8%; Coupon payment, annual; Market interest rate, 8%; Face value, $1,000. Using Excel, calculate the duration of the bond. Using Excel, calculate the accumulated value of invested payment(or receipt) when you find market interest rate a year later is now 8%, 9%, and 7%, respectively. Using Excel, calculate geometric average rate of return (or realized compound return).
An investor purchased the following five bonds. Each bondhad a par value of $1,000 and an 8% yield to maturity on the purchase day. Immediatelyafter the investor purchased them, interest rates fell, and each then had a new YTM of 7%.What is the percentage change in price for each bond after the decline in interest rates? Fillin the following table:
