Problem:
Zabberer Corp bonds pay coupon rate of 12% annual interest and maturity value of $1000. Bonds are scheduled to mature at end of 14 years. Company has the option to call the bonds in 8 years at a premium of 12 % above maturity value.
You believe company will exercise its option to call the bonds at that time. If you require a pretax of 10% on bonds of this risk, how much would you pay for one of these bonds today?
