Bond Valuation
1. **State the problem:** Calculate the value of a Tk. 5,000 par value bond paying quarterly interest at an annual coupon rate of 10%, with 10 years maturity, when the required rate is 12% annual, compounded quarterly.
2. **Identify given data:**
- Par value, $F = 5000$
- Annual coupon rate, $r_c = 10\%$
- Coupon payment frequency: quarterly (4 times a year)
- Maturity, $T = 10$ years
- Required annual rate, $r_y = 12\%$, compounded quarterly
3. **Calculate coupon payment per quarter:**
$$\text{Coupon per quarter} = \frac{r_c \times F}{4} = \frac{0.10 \times 5000}{4} = 125$$
4. **Calculate number of periods:**
$$n = 10 \times 4 = 40$$
5. **Calculate required rate per period:**
$$i = \frac{r_y}{4} = \frac{0.12}{4} = 0.03$$
6. **Calculate present value of coupon payments (annuity):**
$$PV_{coupons} = 125 \times \frac{1 - (1 + 0.03)^{-40}}{0.03}$$
Calculate:
$$1 + 0.03 = 1.03$$
$$1.03^{-40} = \frac{1}{1.03^{40}} \approx 0.30656$$
$$1 - 0.30656 = 0.69344$$
$$\frac{0.69344}{0.03} = 23.1147$$
$$PV_{coupons} = 125 \times 23.1147 = 2889.34$$
7. **Calculate present value of par value (lump sum):**
$$PV_{par} = 5000 \times (1.03)^{-40} = 5000 \times 0.30656 = 1532.80$$
8. **Calculate total bond value:**
$$PV = PV_{coupons} + PV_{par} = 2889.34 + 1532.80 = 4422.14$$
**Final answer:** The value of the bond is approximately **Tk. 4422.14**.
