Semi -Annual Bonds: Most Bonds Pay Interest Semi-Annually: What is the value of a bond with a semi-annual coupon with 5 years to maturity, 9% (nominal) coupon rate if an investor desires a 10% (nominal) return?
Most Bonds Pay Interest Semi-Annually: e.g. semiannual coupon bond with 5 years to maturity, 9% annual coupon rate. Instead of 5 annual payments of $90, the bondholder receives 10 semiannual payments of $45. 0 1 2 3 4 5 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 45 45.00 1000.00 45 45 45 45 45 45 45 45
Compute the value of the bond given that you require a 10% s-a. return on your investment.
