Present Value: The value of today’s amount expected to be paid or received in the future at a compound interest rate is called as present value.
Determine the issuance price of the bonds.
Step 1: Calculate the cash interest payment for bonds.
Step 2: Calculate the present value of cash interest payment.
Particulars | Amount |
Interest payment (a) | $120,000 |
PV factor at annual market interest rate of 7% for 5 periods (b) | 4.10020 |
Present value | $492,024 |
Table (1)
Note: The present value factor for 5 periods at 7% interest would be 4.10020 (Refer Appendix E (Table E.2) in the book for present value factor).
Step 3: Calculate the present value of single principal payment of $2,000,000 (principal amount) at 7% for 5 periods.
Particulars | Amount |
Single principal payment (a) | $2,000,000 |
PV factor at annual market interest rate of 7% for 5 periods (b) | 0.71299 |

Table (2)
Note: The present value factor for 5 periods at 7% interest would be 0.71299 (Refer Appendix E (Table E.1) in the book for present value factor).
Step 4: Calculate the issue price of the bonds.
Hence, The issuance price of the bonds on January 1 of this Year is $1,918,004.
