Equation solution:
b. & c. The current yield and capital gains yield during the next three years will be:
(1) Year 1: Current price = $731.19 (three years remain until maturity)
Input N = 2, I/Y = 11, PMT = 0, and FV = 1,000; compute PV = -811.62, which will be the
value of the bond when two years remain until maturity.
(2) Year 2: Current price = $811.62 (two years remain until maturity)
Input N = 1, I/Y = 11, PMT = 0, and FV = 1,000; compute PV = -900.90, which was the
value of the bond when one year remains until maturity.
(3) Year 3: Current price = $900.90 (two years remain until maturity)
Input N = 0, I/Y = 11, PMT = 0, and FV = 1,000; compute PV = -1,000, which was the value
of the bond at maturity.
