Answer:

$1,035,459.51

Explanation:

First we must determine the issuing value:

  • cash flow 1 = $60,000
  • cash flow 1 = $60,000
  • cash flow 1 = $60,000
  • cash flow 1 = $60,000
  • cash flow 1 = $1,060,000

using an excel spreadsheet to calculate the bond's price with a discount value of 5%:

the bonds were sold at $1,043,294.77

the effective interest expense = bond's price x market interest = $1,043,294.77  x 5% = $52,164.74

bond's value = bond's price - (coupon payment - effective interest) = $1,043,294.77 - ($60,000 - $52,164.74) = $1,035,459.51
