| A. |
| Settlement | (Think of Settlement as the beginning of the duration of the bond) |
| Maturity | (Think of Maturity as the end of the duration of the bond) |
| Rate | (Coupon Rate) |
| YTM | (Yield to Maturity or Required Rate fo Return) |
| Redemption | (Bonds Face Value, Par Value, or Fair Price; Note that is is $100, not $1,000. You make the adjustments by multiplying the answer by 10.) |
| Frequency | (Coupon payments are semiannul, so you put in a 2. If they are annual, then you input a 1) |
| Basis | (Always leave it blank) |
| Bond Price: | (The answer. But you need to multiply it by 10 to get the actual bond price.) |
| Multiply by 10 | (Microsoft gives the bond price in 2 digits like in cell B111. You need to multiply it by 10 to get the actual bond price) |

| Problem P8-1: |
| Vaue of Investment X 1 year ago = | $20,000 |
| Part a: | Vaue of Investment Y 1 year ago = | $55,000 |
| Investment X cash flow = | $1,500 |
| Investment Y cash flow = | $6,800 |
