Respuesta :

Answer:

Zero-cupon bond= $835.45

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Face value= $1,000

YTM= 11.3%

Years to maturity= 16 years

To calculate the price of the bond, we need to use the following formula:

Zero-cupon bond= [face value/(1+i)^n]

Zero-cupon bond= 1,000 / (1.113^16)

Zero-cupon bond= $835.45
