Answer to Question 1:
Face Value = $1,000
Annual Coupon Rate = 4.50%
Semiannual Coupon Rate = 2.25%
Semiannual Coupon = 2.25% * $1,000
Semiannual Coupon = $22.50
Time to Maturity = 4.50 years
Semianniual Period = 9
Annual YTM = 4.25%
Semiannual YTM = 2.125%
Current Price = $22.50 * PVIFA(2.125%, 9) + $1,000 *
PVIF(2.125%, 9)
Current Price = $22.50 * (1 - (1/1.02125)^9) / 0.02125 + $1,000 /
1.02125^9
Current Price = $1,010.14
