Question:
An issuer of a unique coupon-paying bond is expected to pay the following coupons over the remaining life of the bond:
- $20 in 3 months,
- $30 in 9 months, and
- $40 in 15 months
The bond has a face value of $1000, and is currently priced at $950. The risk-free rate of interest is 5% per annum compounded continuous. Because the market considers the bond to be risky, it carries a 6% annual default premium.
What is the forward delivery price of a 10-month maturity forward contract written on the above coupon-paying bond?
