Bond issued question?

Question

Company A is about to issue 10-year bonds that have face value of $100000 and a stated (contract) interest rate of 5%. What is the cash company A will receive when bond is issued?

I am stumped on this one. I changed the numbers so I can work my problem. I just want to know how your suppose to do that math. I know the bond is issued at a discount. But that's all I know and I don't have any further information. Can someone walk me through this? Thanks so much.

Answer 1

you have to tell us the discount off the face value its being issued at

Answer 2

I do not think you have supplied us with sufficient information to solve the problem.  At the very least we would need the yield to maturity.
