SOLVE QUESTION "d.)" ONLY!!!!!!! THANK YOU. SHOW WORK AND EXPLANATION PLEASE!

1. Suppose you're given with the following information for some assets; a 10-year 2.0%-coupon bond of semi-annual coupon payment with face value as $1,000, a common stock of $3.60 expected dividend with 2.5% growth rate currently. Both bond and common stock are issued by Company M&M. Answer the following questions.

a)Suppose the yield to maturity (that is, the discount rate) for the bond is 10%, what is the present value of this coupon bond?

Price of bond = Present value of future cash flows

= Semi annual Coupon x PVIFA @ 5% for 20 half years + Redemption Value x PVIF @ 5% for 20 half year

= $10 x {(1/1.05)^1 +(1/1.05)^2 + (1/1.05)^3 . . . . . . . (1/1.05)^20} + $1000 x (1/1.05)^20

= $10 x 12.462 + $1000 x 0.376889

= $501.51

b)Is it a discount bond? Why?

c)What is the bond's fair value if the discount rate is 2.0%?

1)$1000 2) $ 894.30 3) $798.32 4) $1036.09 5) none of the above.

Price of bond = Present value of future cash flows

= Semi annual Coupon x PVIFA @ 5% for 20 half years + Redemption Value x PVIF @ 5% for 20 half year

= $10 x {(1/1.01)^1 +(1/1.01)^2 + (1/1.01)^3 . . . . . . . (1/1.01)^20} + $1000 x (1/1.01)^20

= $10 x 12.462 + $1000 x 0.376889

= $1000.00

d)Suppose the bond is in fact, callable. That is, the firm may repurchase it with the call price as $918 and the bond is callable at the end of year 4, what is the yield to call for this bond if the current bond price is $789? (That is, the discount rate for the bond if you choose to be called. Use IRR function in EXCEL for this question).
