Florida Investment Company
a. Present value of interest payments
PVA = A × PVIFA (n = 20, i = 6%) Appendix D
PVA = $50 × 11.470 = $573.50
Present value of principal payment at maturity
PV = FV × PVIF (n = 20, i = 6%) Appendix B
PV = $1,000 × .312 = $312.00
Total present value
Present value of interest payments $573.50
Present value of payment at maturity 312.00
Total present value or price of the bond $885.50
