Problem 14-5

On February 1, 2013, Cromley Motor Products issued 9% bonds, dated

February 1, with a face amount of $80 million. The bonds mature on
January 31, 2017 (4 years). The market yield for bonds of similar risk
and maturity was 10%. Interest is payable semiannually on July 31,
and January 31. Barnwell Industries acquired $80,000 of the bonds as
a long-term
l i
investment. The
h fiscal
fi l year endd off both
b h firms
fi is
i
December 31.
Part 1: Determine the price of the bonds issued on February 1, 2013.
Cromley: Cash interest paid: 9% x $80,000,000 x 6/12 = $3,600,000
Present value of interest: Table 4, 8 payments @ 5% = 6.46321 x
$3,600,000 = $23,267,556
Present value of $$80 million: Table 2,, 8 periods
p @ 5% = 0.67684 x
$80,000,000 = $54,147,200
Price of bonds: $77,414,756 ($23,267,556 + $54,147,200)
Barnwell purchased 80,000 ÷ 80,000,000 = 0.1% of the bonds.
Therefore, the price paid was 0.1% x $77,414,756 = $77,415
