Answer:
The cash paid to the bondholder on July 1 is Z = $7000
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The percentage bond issued by the company is [tex]n = 7[/tex]%
The par value of the bond is [tex]V =[/tex]$200,000
The market rate is [tex]r = 6[/tex]%
So we are told that the bonds pay interest semiannually on January 1 and July
So the cash paid to the bondholder on July 1 is mathematically evaluated as
Z = [tex]V * \frac{7}{100} * \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
substituting value
Z = [tex]200000 * \frac{7}{100} * \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Z = $7000
