11. Twin Oaks Health Center has a bond issue outstanding with a coupon rate of 7% and four years remaining until maturity. The par value of the bond is $1,000, and the bond pays interest annually.

 

 

 

a. Determine the current value of the bond if present market conditions justify a 14% required rate of return?

 

 

 

b. Now suppose Twin Oaks four year bond had semiannual coupon payments. What would be its current value? (Assume a 7% semiannual required rate of return. The actual rate would be slightly less than 7% because a semiannual coupon bond is slightly less risky than an annual coupon bond.)

 

 

 

c. Assume that Twin Oaks bond had a semiannual coupon but 20 years remaining to maturity. What is the current value under these conditions? (Assume a 7% semiannual required rate of return although the actual rate would probably be greater than 7% because of increased risk.)

a. What is the value of these bonds when the required interest rate is 5 percent, 10 percent, and 15 percent?

 

 

 

b. Why is the price of Bond L more sensitive to interest rate changes than the price of Bond S?
