Bubba buys a 5% bond that matures in 15 years with a 5.10 basis. How much did he pay for the bond?
Suggested Answer:
B
98.96. A calculator is not required for this. Even Bubba knows the bond is obviously trading at a slight discount by yielding 5.10% instead of the coupon rate of 5%. If the yield was the same as the coupon rate, the price is 100.00.
