Q1: We have a callable preferred stock after 5 years at $104 that pays $4 annual dividend. If the yields for this type of instruments are 6%, What price do they fetch in the market?
Q2: We buy a 8% coupon bond now, when market rates are 10%, and intend to sell it in 3 years when market rates are 6%. What should we pay now?
Immediate help required !!!
1. 94.564
2. 95.026 (excluding 6% option, can't understand how market rate is predicted for future because the same is not possible)

Your welcome,
