    option 1: MV=95.72

    in this case, if we issue 150m bonds, we will raise:

    150m/100 x 95.72 = $143,580,000

    the shortfall will be: 150m-143.58m=$6.42m

    in order to raise this shortfall, we will need to issue extra:

    6.42m/95.72 = 67071 bonds

    My question: the answer is calculating 67398 extra bonds, but he has used the discount of 4.3% (100-95.72) to calculate this figure.

    i just want to know if my arithmetic is also acceptable?

    regards

    Yes – I think what you have done would be perfectly acceptable 🙂
