Term (Years )

24

Required rate of return

12%

Present value annuity factor (12%, 24 years)

      7.78432

Present value of Coupon payments = 368 * 7.78432 (A)

$ 2,864.63

Terminal value (Face value)

$        2,300

Present value factor (12%, 24 th year)

    0.065882

Present value of terminal value = 2300 *0.065882 (B)

$    151.53

Current Price of the bond (A+B)

$ 3,016.16
