If the owners choose to invest in bonds instead, they look at a $136,125.00 bond set to mature in 9 years with a bond rate of 2.00%, payable semi-annually. The market rate is 5.40%, compounded semi-annually. The owners will only purchase the bond if they can afford it with their savings ($123,750.00), and they can get the bond at a discount because they think the market rate will go down, potentially making the bond more valuable in the future. 2. Calculate the purchase price of the bond if it is purchased today (9 years before maturity). 3. Do the owners have enough money to buy their bond? Will they make the purchase?
