Question
Suppose that in 2018 your grandmother
gifted you a 30 year US Treasury bond which
she had bought newly issued in 2010. This
bond has a face value of $10,000 and pays
4% coupon every December. This bond will
mature in 2040 December. You held that
bond and earned coupon payments for two
years but in January 2020 you sold this bond
in the secondary market. If the market interest
rate was 2% at that time, what price did you
get for that bond?
