    Bonds: Valuation
    Hello,

    I am doing a group project and need to know if anyone can suggest some good sites where I may be able to obtain some useful information on Valuation- Determining Value & Recording Value.

    Bring it into focus just a bit, as it's kind of broad, as stated. For example, are you wanting to look up prices on traded bonds, or figure how to value bonds from their terms? And to what does the "Recording Value" refer? Given where you've posted, it's probably an accounting issue, but I'd rather wait on some clarification. Thanks,
