Josh bought a bond with a par value of 1,500 from company ABC. The bond pays twenty annual coupons of 90 and matures at the end

of twenty years. It is bought and redeemed at par. Immediately after his purchase, company ABC issues another bond with the same coupon structures and redemption value as the par bond, but with a lower annual effective yield rate of 4%. Josh calculates the price of the new bond using the first-order modified approximation and the first-order Macaulay approximation. Let X be the the new price using the first-order Macaulay approximation and let Y be the new price using the first-order modified approximation. Calculate X-Y.

A project has been assigned a discount rate of 12 percent. If the project starts immediately, it will have an initial cost of $4
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The value of the option to wait is $0.70,option A.

Explanation:

In calculating the value of the option to wait,I discounted all cash flows under both alternatives, using the discount rate of 12% as given in the question.

Option to start now gives net present value(positive return ) of $360.64 while the other one gives $361.34,invariably option to wait one year gives $0.70($361.34-$360.64) more than the option to start now.

The formula used in the calculating present value is PV=FV(1+r)^n

Where PV=present value

FV=future value

r=rate of interest

n=number of year

Find attached spreadsheet for detailed calculations.
