Present value of $1 at 8% for 10 periods

0.4632

Present value of $1 at 10% for 10 periods

0.3855

Present value of an annuity of $1 at 8% for 10 periods

Answer:

D. $87,707

Explanation:

The present value of the investment is the sum of the value of the periodic cash interest payments and the value of the bond proceeds at maturity.

The interest payment at 8% on each bond = $1000 × 8% = 1000 × 0.08 = $80 per year for 10 years.

Applying a present value factor of 6.1446 (Present value of an annuity of $1 at 10% for 10 periods) gives a present value of the periodic interest payments of (6.1446 × $80) = $491.57.

The proceeds of each bond at maturity = face value × present value factor of 0.3855 (Present value of an annuity of $1 at 10% for 10 periods) = $1000 × 0.3855 = $385.5.

The total price for the bond =  (The proceeds of each bond at maturity + the periodic interest payments) × 100 bonds

= ($491.57 + $385.50) × 100 bonds = $87,707.

Therefore welling would pay $87,707 for the bonds.

Answer:

$87707 ( D )

Explanation:

The value of an investment ( present ) is the summation of the value of the timely/periodic cash interest payments made and the value of the Bond at Maturity

The interest payment at 8% on every/each bond= 1000 * 0.08 = $80 per year for 10 years

To calculate the present value of the periodic interest payment we will apply a present value factor of 6.1446( present value of an annuity of $1 at 10% for 10 periods )

= 6.1446 * $80 = $491.57

Also calculate

The proceeds of each bond at maturity = face value * present value factor of 0.3855 ( present value of annuity of $1 at 10% for 10 periods )

                                                                 = $1000 * 0.3855 = $385.5

therefore the total price for the bond =( the summation of the proceeds of each bond at maturity + periodic interest payment ) * the number of bonds

= $(491.57 + 385.5) * 100   = $87707 and this is what Welling will pay for the bonds.
