A 10-year, $1,000 par value bond pays an 8% coupon with quarterly payment during its first five years (you receive $20 a quarter for the first 20 quarters). During the remaining five years the security has a 10% quarterly coupon (you receive $25 a quarter for the second 20 quarters). After 10 years (40 quarters) you receive the par value. Another 10-year bond has an 8% semi-annual coupon. This bond is selling at par value. Both bonds have the same risk and thus same required return. What should be the price of the first bond?
