Step by step solution

01

Computing the coupon. 

AnnualCoupon=ParValueCouponRate=$1,0009%=$90

02

Computing the price of the bonds for 30 years.

  • Par value of bond (P) is $1,000.
  • Yield to maturity (r) is 12%.
  • Years to maturity (n) is 30.
  • BondPrice=Coupon[1-11+rn]r+P(1+r)n=$90[1-11+0.1230]0.12+$1,000(1+0.12)30=$908.06+33.38=$758.78
03

Computing the price of the bonds for 15 years.

  • Par value of bond (P) is $1,000.
  • Yield to maturity (r) is 12%.
  • Years to maturity (n) is 15.
  • BondPrice=Coupon[1-11+rn]r+P(1+r)n=$90[1-11+0.1215]0.12+$1,000(1+0.12)15=$906.81+$182.70=$795.60
04

Computing the price of the bonds for 1 years.

  • Par value of bond (P) is $1,000.
  • Yield to maturity (r) is 14%.
  • Years to maturity (n) is 18.

BondPrice=Coupon[1-11+rn]r+P(1+r)n=$90[1-11+0.121]0.12+$1,000(1+0.1200)1=$900.8929+892.86=$973.22
