Price of bond = Coupon * PVIFA (n,i)+ face value * PVIF (n,i)
Price of bond= (1000*8.5%)* PVIFA (10 , 9.5%) + 1000* PVIF (10 ,9.5%)
Price of bond = 85 *6.278798034321640 + 1000 *0.4035141867394450
= $ 937.21
Hence the correct answer is $ 937.21
a. Fair Value as computed above = $ 937.21
Selling price = $ 935
Since, the Fair Value is more than the Selling Price this means that the bond is under priced and hence can be purchased.
Answer : Yes bond must be purchased.
