Expert Solution
Step 1

Bond price

It is basically the present value of all cash inflows associated with a bond. In excel, it is calculated using 'PV' function where different input parameters as mentioned below are used.

  • Rate: It is the yield to maturity (YTM) rate.
  • Nper: It is a period to maturity.
  • FV: It is the face value of the bond, which is to be received at the maturity of bond.
  • PMT: It is the periodic coupon payment to be made at equal interval till the maturity of the bond.
  • PV: It represents the price or current value of a bond.

The sign of PMT and FV should be oppositive of the sign of the PV as PMT and FV are the cash inflow while PV is the cash outflow for the investor.
