Forestry company is looking to raise $ 5 m through the issue of 6 year deep discounted zero coupon bond. The issue price has been set at 40% discount .kelvin may invest but is looking for a return of 10 % per annum to do so?
Calculate the gross redemption yield on the deep discount Bond?
Sir i dont understand this question discount

However if they are issuing the debt at a discount, then for every $100 nominal they will only charge $60 (a 40% discount).
They will not pay any interest (this is what zero coupon means), but they will repay the full $100 on redemption.December 1, 2017 at 7:53 am #419341Its was in kaplan revision kit sir
