Answer:
Explanation:
The market value of debt is the present value of all future cash flows in servicing the debt.
we need to identify the present value of the future cash flows as follows
Year no of receipts Cash flow Discount factor present value
1-7 7 70 5.1185 358.296
7 1 1000 0.5649 564.926
Present Value 923.222
Annuity= P=R(1+(1+i )^-n) /i
Annuity= P=70(1+(1+8.5%)^-7/8.5% = 5.1185
Compound = S=P(1+i)
Compound =P=1000/(1+8.5%)^7 = 0.5649
the value of the bond is = 923.222
