96.(Valuing bonds)(Related to Checkpoint 9.3 on page
302) Pybus, Inc., is considering
issuing bonds that will mature in 20 years with an 8 percent annual
coupon rate. Their
par value will be $1,000, and the interest will be paid
semiannually. Pybus is hoping
to get an AA rating on its bonds but is not sure whether that will
happen. If it does, the
yield to maturity on similar AA bonds is 7.5 percent. However, if
the bonds receive
only an A rating, the yield to maturity on similar A bonds is 8.5
percent. What will be
the price of these bonds if they receive either an A or an
AA rating?( answer in word format )?
