Valles Global University (VGU) has decided to build a dormitory on campus for 1000 students that includes a spa and cafeteria for students at their urban New Jersey
campus. VGU has estimated construction costs of $75 million. A wealthy alumna offers to kick in 25 million dollars and VGU will sell bonds to raise the rest. The VGU
bonds are five-year bonds and have a par value of $1000 and pay 6% compounded semi-annually. Assume the VGU bonds are all sold. VGU uses an investment rate
of 4% per year.
1. Develop a revenue plan that will allow VGU to pay the interest and principal of the bonds. (How much revenue do they need per period to pay the interest and
the $50,000,000 back?)
2. Suppose similar bonds are currently paying 10% in the bond market. How much would VGU receive per bond? Will they be able to build their dormitory with this
bond sale? Explain your answer.
