E14-1 Determining the Proceeds from Bond Issues.

Madison Corporation is authorized to issue $500,000 of 5-year bonds dated June 30, 2016, with a stated rate of interest of 11%. Interest on the bonds is payable semiannually, and the bonds are sold on June 30, 2016.

Required: Determine the proceeds that the company will receive if it sells (1) the bonds to yield 12% and (2) the bonds to yield 10%.

1. (Factors from Tables 3 and 4 of the TVM Module)

n = 10, i = 0.06

PV of Principal ($500,000 0.558395) = $279,179.50

PV of Interest + ($27,500 7.360087) = 202,402.39

$481,581.89

OMIT 2. (Factors from Tables 3 and 4 of the TVM Module)

n = 10, i = 0.05

PV of Principal ($500,000 0.613913) = $306,956.50

PV of Interest + ($27,500 7.721735) = 212,347.71
