Question

Rosina purchased one 15-year bond at par value when it was initially issued. This bond has a coupon rate of 7 percent and matures 13 years from now. If the current market rate for this type and quality of bond is 7.5 percent, then Rosina should expect: the bond issuer to increase the amount of all future interest payments. the yield to maturity to remain constant due to the fixed coupon rate. to realize a capital loss if she sold the bond at today's market price. today's market price to exceed the face value of the bond. the current yield today to be less than 7 percent.

Answer 1

Answer:

to realize a capital loss if she sold the bond at today's market price.

Explanation:

Given that

NPER is 13

RATE is 7.5%

PMT is 7% of $1,000

Future value be $1,000

We need to find out the present value

So,

The current price of the bond is:

=PV(7.5%,13,7%*1000,1000)

=$959.37

Now if she wants to sell the bond now, so the value should be less than the face value due to which there should be the capital loss
