solution
assume we are at the beginning of 2020 and the bond matures at the end of 2035. Then
Number of years, n=16
Face value, F=250,000
6% annual coupon, C=0.06∗250,000=15,000 Required rate of return, r=0.10
Present value of the bond
PV=C∗r1−(1+r)−n+F∗(1+r)−n
PV=15,000∗0.11−(1.1)−16+250,000∗(1.1)−16
117,355.6296+54,407.28395=171,762.9136
answer: the price of the bond today is $ 171,762.91
