Explanation:
The price of a bond can be computed using the pv function in excel which is given as ;=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
rate is the annual or semi annual effective rate
nper is the number of coupon interest the bond would pay
pmt is the annual or semi-annual coupon payment
fv is the face value of the bond at $1,400,000
1
=-pv(12%,15,1400000*10%,1400000)
pv=$1,209,295.79
2
=-pv(12%*6/12,15*2,1400000*10%*6/12,1400000)
pv=$1,207,292.36
3
=-pv(10%*6/12,5*2,1400000*12%*6/12,1400000)
pv=$1,508,104.29
4
=-pv(10%*6/12,10*2,1400000*12%*6/12,1400000)
pv=$1,574,470.94
5
=-pv(12%*6/12,10*2,1400000*12%*6/12,1400000)
pv=$1,400,000
