    Bond Value
    Midland Oil has $1,000 par value bonds outstanding at 8 percent interest. The bonds will mature in 25 years. Compute the current price of the bonds if the present yield to maturity is:

    a. 7 percent.

    b. 10 percent.

    c. 13 percent.

    Here is what I came up with?
    PVa =A x PVifa = Present Value of Interest Payments.
    PV = FV x PVif = Present Value of Principal Payment at Maturity.
    Total Present Value = Present Value of Interest Payments + Present Value of Principal at Maturity.

    a) 7% / n = 25 / I = 7%

    PVa = $80 x 11.654 = $932.32
    PV = $1,000 x .184 = $184.00
    Total = $932.32 + $184.00 = $1,116.32

    b) 10% / n = 25 / I = 10%

    PVa = $80 x 9.077 = $726.16
    PV = $1,000 x .092 = $92.00
    Total = $932.32 + $184.00 = $818.16

    c) 13% / n = 25 / I = 13%

    PVa = $80 x 7.330 = $586.40
    PV = $1,000 x .047 = $47.00
    Total = $586.40 + $47.00 = $633.40
    :)
    Not sure if this is right.
