Answer #1

Let X be the Smei annual Coupon amount

Period CF PVF @1.75% Disc CF
1-6 X     5.6490 5.6490X
6 $ 100.00     0.9011 $   90.11
Price of Bond 5.6490X + 90.11

Thus 5.6490X + 90.11 = 101.2

5.6490X = 101.2 - 90.11

= 11.09

X = 11.09 / 5.6490

= 1.96

Coupon amount per Anum = 1.96 * 2

= 3.93

Coupon Rate = Coupon Amount per anum / Par Vale

= $ 3.93 /$ 100

= 3.93%
