So, only $70 would be considered
Answer:
$1,138.92
Explanation:
Current bond price can be calculated present value (PV) of cash flows formula below:
Current price or PV of bond = C{[1 - (1 + i)^-n] ÷ i} + {M × (1 + i)^-n} ...... (1)
Where:
Face value = $1,000
r = coupon rate = 7.2% annually = (7.2% ÷ 2) semiannually = 3.6% semiannually
C = Amount of semiannual interest payment = Face value × r
C = $1,000 × 3.6% = $36
n = number of payment periods remaining = (12 - 1) × 2 = 22
i = YTM = 5.5% annually = (5.5% ÷ 2) semiannually = 2.75% semiannually = 0.0275 semiannually
M = value at maturity = face value = $1,000
Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:
PV of bond = 36{[1 - (1 + 0.0275)^-22] ÷ 0.0275} + {1,000 × (1 + 0.0275)^-22}
PV of bond = $1,138.92.
Therefore, the current bond price is $1,138.92.
