2. J. Peterman Inc. issued a ten-year bond three years ago with a face value of $1,000. The bond makes semi-annual coupon payments, and its coupon rate is 8%.

What is the current price of J Peterman bonds? If you bought J Peterman bonds one year ago and sold it today, what is your percentage gain (or loss) from the price change?

When Celia was born, her dear old Aunt Minnie promised to deposit $1,000 into a savings account bearing a 5% compounded annual rate on each birthday, beginning with her first and ending on the 22nd. Celia has just turned 22 and wants the dough. However, it turns out that dear old (forgetful) Aunt Minnie made no deposits on Celia’s third, fifth, and eleventh birthdays. How much is in the account right now?
