2. 95.026 (excluding 6% option, can't understand how market rate is predicted for future because the same is not possible)

Chiranjiv Kumar, Thank you very much for the reply. Can you please explain the steps for part (b). It is an exam question, so i didnt have the explanation. Thanks in advance.

Your welcome,

by taking 100 rs. bond value and 8% coupon rate and discounting it at 10%. Don't know the role of 6%

Thanks for the explanation.And when market rate goes down,price will go up ,and this is called trading on equity.
