Problem
An investor is considering the purchase of a(n) 6.500%, 15-year corporate bond that's being priced to yield 8.500%. She thinks that in a year, this bond will be priced in the market to yield 7.500%.
Using annual compounding, find the price of the bond today and in 1 year. Next, find the holding period return on this investment, assuming that the investor's expectations are borne out.
