Sunburn Sunscreen has a zero coupon bond issue outstanding with a $10,000 face value that matures in one year. The current market value of the firm's assets is $10,600. The standard deviation of the return on the firm's assets is 32 percent per year, and the annual risk-free rate is 7 percent per year, compounded continuously. What is the market value of the firm's debt based on the Black-Scholes model? (Round your answer to the nearest $100.) 
 
A. 
$6,415.30

B. 
$6,900

C. 
$8,60

D. 
$8,800

E. 
$9,200
d1 = [ln ($10,600/$10,000) + (0.07 + 0.322/2) × 1]/[0.32 × (11/2)] = 0.560840
d2 = 0. 560840- [0.32 × (11/2)] = 0.240840
N(d1) = 0.7125
N(d2) = 0.5952
Equity = $10,600(0.7125) - ($10,000e-0.07(1)) (0.5952) = $2,003.76
Debt = $10,600 - $2,003.76 = $8,596.24 ≈ $8,600
