Suppose your company needs to raise $55 million and you want to issue 30-year bonds for this purpose. Assume the required return on your bond issue will be 5 percent, and you're evaluating two issue alternatives: a semiannual coupon bond with a coupon rate of 5 percent and a zero coupon bond. The tax rate is 21 percent. Both bonds will have a par value of $2,000. a-1. How many of the coupon bonds would you need to issue to raise the $55 million? a-2. How many of the zeroes would you need to issue? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) b-1.
