Suppose a bond is priced at $1170, has 17 years remaining until maturity, and has a 7% coupon, paid monthly. What is the amount of the next interest payment (in $ dollars)? $ L.
Solution
We need to find coupon paid per month.
Coupon per year =coupon rate*par value
=7%*1000= 140
Coupon/interest per month= 70/12= 5.83
