Worked practice questions

A 6% par-100 bond pays on 1 Apr and 1 Oct. On 1 Jul clean price is 98.20. Under 30/360 the dirty price is?

  1. Rs 98.20
  2. Rs 96.70
  3. Rs 99.70
  4. Rs 101.20
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. Rs 99.70

Half-yearly coupon is 3, accrual is 90/180 = 0.5, so interest is 1.50 and dirty price is 98.20 + 1.50 = 99.70.
