A coupon bond has 10 years to maturity. Face value = $1,000 The coupon rate = 7.5% Currently the market rate for a 10 year bond = 8.21% What is price of the bond? a. Three years after issuance the market rate increases to 9%. Now what is the bond price? b. Five years after issuance the market rate decreases to 6%. Now what is the bond price? 3.
