Basic Bond Valuation

Use this template to prepare a series of bond valuations. The par value is the
face value or redemption value of the bond. In short, it is what the bond issuer
has promised to cash the "bond out at" on some future date. Most bonds have
a $1,000 dollar par value. The years to maturity equal the number of years that
remain until the bond is cashed out (redeemed) by the user. The required rate
of return is the investor's expectations for an annual yield from the investment
while the coupon rate is the annual interest paid on the bond, as a percentage
of the bond's par value. In valuing a bond, you can specify how frequently interest
is paid. Annual interest means that the interest is paid once a year while
semi-annual interest means the bondholder will receive interest twice per year.
