Answer #1

Face Value of the bond = FV = $1000

Number of periods to maturity = n = 4*2 = 8 semiannual periods

Coupon Rate = 5%/2 * 1000 = $25

The Coupon Payments is made 8 times in 4 years and the Face Value is paid at maturity

Hence, Payments from Period 1 to 7 = $25 and payment in Period 8 = 1000+25 = $1025
