Problem #3: A 5 year bond has semiannual coupons of 14% per annum. The continuously compounding yield is 19%. The bond has a face value of $300. You will be pricing the bond initially, and at future times throughout the life of the bond as it pulls to par at maturity, using the same continuously compounding yield throughout. Since the yield is given with continuous compounding, the usual formulas will not work without changing the yield to the equivalent discrete...
