Answer:

Courier Logistics Corp will receive c. $2,561,585 from this bond issuance

Explanation:

Note that the Yield to Maturity is less than the Coupon Rate, therefore the bond is trading at a Premium (price will be greater than the par value)

The price of the bond, PV is calculated as follows :

PMT = $2,400,000 × 5% = $120,000

P/YR = 1

N = 8

FV = $2,400,000

YTM = 4%

PV= ?

Using a Financial Calculator, the price of the bond, PV is $2,561,585.87 or $2,561,585.
