A bond with face value $1399 and a term of 11 years pays quarterly coupons of 11% per annum. The bond is offered at a price of $1050. You are to enter the above values into a spreadsheet, along with - an initial wild guess at what the yield would be, and - a calculation of the bond price using your guess as the yield. (a) Use Excel’s “Solver” (which is different from “Goal Seek”) to solve for the actual yield that produces the correct bond price. Take a screen shot of your computer with “Solver” open showing clearly the entries that you put into Solver. Paste the screen shot into an application (like Paint), and save it as a (.png) file. Upload your screenshot below. (b) What is the yield calculated by Solver?
