Answer:

          Miller Bond:                    

Today:      1,166.63

1-year       1,159.83

4-years     1,135.90

9-years     1,081.11

13-years   1,018.86

14-years  1,000 (maturity)

Modigliani Bond

Today:     851.01

1-year      856.25

4-years    875.38

9-years     922.78

13-years   981.41

14-years  1,000 (maturity)

Explanation:

The present value will be the discount coupon payment and maturirty at the YTM rate:

Miller Bond:

The coupon payment are calcualte as ordinary annuity

[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]

C 50.00 (1,000 x 10% / 2)

time      28 (14 years x 2 payment per year)

rate   0.04 (8% YTM / 2 payment per year)

[tex]50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-28} }{0.04} = PV\\[/tex]

PV $833.1532

While Maturity, using the lump sum formula

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]  

Maturity  $1,000.00

time   28 semesters

rate  0.04

[tex]\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.04)^{28} } = PV[/tex]  

PV   333.48

PV coupon $833.1532  +PV maturity  $333.4775  = Total $1,166.6306

For the subsequent time we must adjust t

in one year, there will be 26 payment until maturity

[tex]50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-26} }{0.04} = PV\\[/tex]

PVcoupon $799.1385

[tex]\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.04)^{26} } = PV[/tex]  

PVmaturity   360.69

Total $1,159.8277

As the bond get closer to maturity it will get closer to face value until maturity when it will equalize it.

We recalculate the same formula with values of:

in 4-year : then 10 years to maturity t = 20

in 9-years: then 5 years to maturity t= 10

in 13-years: 1 year to maturity t = 2

at 14 years: is maturity date so equals the face value of 1,000

Remember: there are two payment per year.

Same process will be done with Modigliani bond:

[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]

C 1,000 x 8% / 2 payment per year : 40.00

time: 14 years x 2 payment per year = 28 payment

rate 10% annual rate /2 = 0.05

[tex]40 \times \frac{1-(1+0.05)^{-28} }{0.05} = PV\\[/tex]

PV coupon $595.9251

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]  

Maturity $ 1,000.00

time   28 semester

rate  0.05

[tex]\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.05)^{28} } = PV[/tex]  

PV  maturity 255.09

PV coupon $595.9251  + PV maturity  $255.0936 = Total $851.0187

and then we calcualte for the same values of t we are asked for the Miller bond.
