1 MATH 373 Quz 5 Fall 218 November 2, A callable bond matures at the end of 2 years for 1,. The bond pays coupons at a rate of 7% convertble sem-annually. The bond can be called at the end of 14 year for a call value of 1,5. The bond can be called at the end of 16 years for a call value of 1,35. Fnally, the bond can be called at the end of 18 years for a call value of 1,2. Determne the prce of ths callable bond to yeld a return of 7% convertble sem-annually. Soluton: I/Y N FV PMT CPT 7/2=3.5 14*2=28 1,5 (1,)(.7/2)=35 1, , , ,2 35 1, , 35 1,. Prce s 1, snce that s the lowest prce.
