The Griggs Company issued bonds five years ago at $1,500 per bond. These bonds had a 25-year life when issued and the annual interest payment was then 15%. This return was in line with the required returns by bondholders at that point in time as described next:

Real rate of return................ 10%

Inflation premium 4

Risk premium 5

Total return 19%

Assume that 10 years later, due to bad publicity, the risk premium is now 8 percent and is appropriately reflected in the required return (or yield to maturity) of the bonds. The bonds have 15 years remaining until maturity. Compute the new price of the bond.
