问题如下:
A company issues $30,000,000 face value of five-year bonds dated 1 January 2015 when the market interest rate on bonds of comparable risk and terms is 5%. The bonds pay 4% interest annually on 31 December. Based on the effective interest rate method, the carrying amount of the bonds on 31 December 2015 is closest to:
选项:
A. $28,466,099.
B. $28,800,000.
C. $28,936,215.
解释:
C is correct.
N=5,I/Y=5,FV =$30,000,000.00,PMT= $1,200,000.00,→PV= $28,701,157.00
The following table illustrates interest expense, premium amortization, and carrying amount (amortized cost) for 2015.
Alternatively, the following illustrates the keystrokes for many financial calculators to calculate the carrying value at the end of first year of $28,936, 215:
N=4,I/Y=5,FV =$30,000,000.00,PMT= $1,200,000.00,→PV= 28,936, 215
1. 为什么表格中要把amortization of discount 单独算出来?BASE 法则不是有beginning carry value + interest should pay - carry value of coupon payment = ending carrying value 嘛。 这里提到的amortization of discount 有没有实际意义呢。 2. 第二种方法没理解,为啥用计算器,把year 改成4就可以知道year end value呢。这个会和年金起初期末付款有关系吗。
