FINANCE-Assume that a bond makes 30 equal annual payments

QUESTION

1.
Problem 1.
Amortizing Bond
Assume
that a bond makes 30 equal annual payments of
$1,000starting
one year from today.
(This
security is sometimes referred to as an amortizing bond.)
If the
discount rate is
3.5%per annum, what is the current
price of the bond?

(Hint:
Recognize that this cash flow stream is an annuity and that the price of an
asset is the present value of its future cash flows.)
*Make sure
to input all currency answers without any currency symbols or commas, and use
two decimal places of precision.

Problem 2.
Coupon Bond
Assume
that a bond makes 10 equal annual payments of
$1,000starting
one year from today.
The bond
will make an additional payment of
$100,000at
the end of the last year, year 10.
(This
security is sometimes referred to as a coupon bond.)
If the
discount rate is
3.5$%per annum, what is the current
price of the bond?

(Hint:
Recognize that this bond can be viewed as two cash flow streams: (1) a 10-year
annuity with annual payments of
$1,000, and (2) a single cash flow of
$100,000arriving
10 years from today. Apply the tools you’ve learned to value both cash flow
streams separately and then add.)
