Hi, I apologize if this is not the right forum to post this kind of threads but I have a question I need some assistance with. Question: Let's assume I'm a Contractor, and I decide to open a new business which is to [build a kindergarten school]. The Total Cost of Building the school is: $2,000,000 I'm required to use BONDS to rise/increase the capital. Coupon/Bond Value: ------------------- Par Value/Face Value: $10,000 Coupon Rate: 10 % Coupon Payment: $500 { Every Six Months (Semiannually): 0.10 x $10,000 = $1,000/2 = $500 } Maturity Date: 20 Years Market Rate 15 % I'm required to Issue (as many Coupons/Bonds as needed) to raise the $2,000,000 required to build the school. How many Bonds will I have to Issue to gain $2,000,000? I read that I have to evaluate the Present Value (PW) of the bonds and then (Issue the bonds) depending on the result of the Present Value. I still don't know exactly how to start the problem, any help the matter would be appreciated. Thank You!
Face value of the bonds are 10,000 dollars. That means 1 bond is 10,000$ So 2,000,000$ in bonds is 2,000,000/10,000 = 200 bonds. Very simple.
Give the girl a break...our education system doesnt teach kids today what par value or face value means. Its very confusing to them.
This is wrong, the bonds will be trading below the $10,000 face value because at that price they yield 10% the market is at 15%... bonds will have to be sold below par to bring the yield up to 15%. To the OP, don't ask for homework advice from idiots on the internet... if you can't figure it out drop out and be a trader. Quit wasting your or your parents money by cheating. 5yr
