Answer #1

The price that we should pay is computed as shown below:

The coupon payment is computed as follows:

= Coupon rate x Par value

= 10% x $ 1,000

= $ 100

So, the price of the bond will be:

= $ 100 / 1.121 + $ 100 / 1.122 + $ 100 / 1.123 + $ 100 / 1.124 + $ 100 / 1.125 + $ 1,000 / 1.125

= $ 927.90 Approximately
