Answer #1

Solution:- The redemption value is $1,050

Interest is paid semi annual = 1,000 * 7.5% * 6 /12 = $37.5 for the six months

interest can be earned for 7 terms and when it is discounted using the annaul yeild rate, it amount to $235 approx

Present value of semiannual coupouns = $75 / 0.058 (1 - 1 / (1.029)^7 = $235

the redemption value is $ 1050 , when discounted using the annual yeild rate amounts to $860 approx

The value of Bond $1,095 ($860 + $235)
