On October 5, 2019, you purchase a $10,000 T-note that matures on August 15, 2031 (settlement occurs one day after purchase, so you receive actual ownership of the bond on October 6, 2019). The coupon rate on the T-note is 4.375 percent and the current price quoted on the bond is 105.250 percent. The last coupon occurred on May 15, 2019 (144 days before settlement), and the next coupon payment will be paid on November, 2019 (40 days from settlement).

a) Calculate the accrued interest (per face value of the bond) due to the seller from the buyer at settlement.

b) Calculate the dirty price (per face value of the bond) of this transaction . Leave your final answer in 3 decimal places.

a)

Accrued interest percentage is 1.712%

Accrued interest amount is $171.2

b)

Dirty price percentage  is 106.962%

Dirty price amount is $10696.2

Explanation:

Given:

coupon rate = 4.375% = 0.04375

number of days before settlement = 144 days

number of days after settlement = 40 days

Face value = $10000

current price % = 105.250%

a)

Accrued interest percentage = (coupon rate / 2) × [number of days before settlement / (number of days before settlement + number of days after settlement)]  = (0.04375/2) × 144 / (144 + 40) = 0.01712 = 1.712%

Accrued interest percentage is 1.712%

Accrued interest amount = accrued interest ×  face value  = 0.01712 × 10000 = $171.2

Accrued interest amount is $171.2

b)

Dirty price percentage =  current price % + accrued interest %  = 105.25 + 1.712 = 106.962% = 1.06962

Dirty price percentage  is 106.962%

Dirty price amount = dirty price % × face value = 1.06962 × 10000 = $10696.2

Dirty price amount is $10696.2

the correct answer would be b, when, queen, calder hall and london.

explanation:

we always capitalize words when a paragraph or sentence is starting, when an important name is used, when a place is being written, or simply when a noun is used, etc. so in this sentence, sentence is starting from 'when', so it will be written in capital letters. secondly, queen is considered to be an important person, so it will also be written in capital letter. next, the name of the town is mentioned, i-e calder hall, which will also be written in capital letters. in the last,   city name is being used, 'london', which will also be written in capital letters. so option b is the most appropriate one.
