Answer #1

1

                  K = Nx2
Bond Price =∑ [(Semi Annual Coupon)/(1 + YTM/2)^k]     +   Par value/(1 + YTM/2)^Nx2
                   k=1
                  K =7x2
Bond Price =∑ [(7.4*1000/200)/(1 + 10.9/200)^k]     +   1000/(1 + 10.9/200)^7x2
                   k=1
Bond Price = 831.65

current yield = coupon rate*par value/current price
Current yield%=(8.1/100)*1000/1215.19
Current yield% = 6.67 = 0.0667
