Part (a)
Face Value = F
Coupon, C = x% of F = xF
Period from t=1 to t=n
Hence, Price of the bond today, P = Present value of all future coupons + Present value of face value at the time of maturity. Hence,
Hence
--------------------
Part (b)
If yield = coupon rate, this means i = x
In that case,
Hence, P = F
Hence, when current price is equal to face value of the bond, in that case yield = coupon rate.
-----------------
Part (c)
If
then
Hence, P / F = x / i
The relationship between P and i:
When F = 1000, x = 5% we can generate the following table
Price, P | Yield, i = xF / P |
500 | 10.00% |
750 | 6.67% |
1,000 | 5.00% |
1,250 | 4.00% |
1,500 | 3.33% |

Course: Theory of Interest (Actuarial Science) Chapter: Bonds Problem: An n-year zero coupon bond with a par value of $1,000 was purchased for $600. A 2n-year $1000 par value bond with annual coupons of $X was purchased for $850. A 3n-year $1000 part value bond with annual coupons of $X was purchased for $P. All 3 bonds have the same yield rate. Compute P. (Hint: Use zero-coupon bond to find the value of v^n. Use the second bond to solve...

Problem 1: You are considering investing in a 10-year bond issued by NewEnergy Inc. This bond has $1000 face value, 4% coupon rate. The bond pays coupons semi-annually and is currently selling at $920. The bond can be called at a $1,040 in 3 years. 1.a. (10 points): If your required rate of return if 6% for bonds in this risk class, what is the maximum price you should pay for this bond? (Use PV function) Coupon rate= Required return=...
Consider a 2-year coupon bond that pays coupon annually with a coupon rate of 3%, face value $1000, a yield to maturity of 4%. (a) What is the approximated bond price estimated by both duration and convexity if the yield is increased by 0.5%? (b) Suppose you purchased 1 unit of the above coupon bond mentioned above and is worried if the interest rate will increase. You are considering taking short position on a zero coupon bond. The zero coupon...

Bonus Problem 2 (Optional, Harder, 45 marks) (a) (10 marks) We consider a bond that pays n coupons at the end of each coupon period. The length of each coupon period is T. The bondholder receives a redemption value at nth coupon payment date. The redemption value, face value and coupon rate (over a coupon period) are C, F and r respectively (see P.13 of Lecture Note 4). For any k = 0,1,2.,,, n, we let Pk be the bond...
