You are buying a bond at a clean price of $1,140. The bond has a face value of $1,000, a coupon rate of 3.8 percent, and pays interest semiannually. The next coupon payment is one month from now. What is the dirty price of this bond

Respuesta :

Answer:

$1,155.83

Explanation:

The computation of dirty price of this bond is shown below:-

Clean Price = $1,140  

Face Value = $1,000  

Interest = 3.80%  

Interest for 5 month = Face Value × Interest × Time  

$1,000 × 3.8% × 5 ÷ 12  

$15.83  

Dirty Price = Clean Price + Accrued Interest

= $1,140 + $15.83  

= $1,155.83

Therefore for computing the dirty price of bond we simply add clean price with accrued interest.
