Answer #1

Answer is $1,067.50

Face Value = $1,000

Asked Price = 106% * Face Value
Asked Price = 106% * $1,000
Asked Price = $1,060

Annual Coupon Rate = 9%

Interest for 1 month is accrued.

Accrued Interest = Face Value * Annual Coupon Rate * Time Period
Accrued Interest = $1,000 * 9% * (1/12)
Accrued Interest = $7.50

Full Price = Asked Price + Accrued Interest
Full Price = $1,060 + $7.50
Full Price = $1,067.50
