Bond's Price = Coupen Amount * PVAF( half yearly ytm, Number of half years ) + Face value * PVIF( half yearly ytm, Number of half years )

   = ( 1000 * 7.25% * 6/12 ) * PVAF( 6.20%/2, 15 * 2 ) + 1000 * PVIF( 6.20%/2, 15 * 2 )

   = 36.25 * PVAF( 3.10%, 30 ) + 1000 * PVIF( 3.10%, 30 )

= 36.25 * [ 1/ 1.0310 + ..... + 1/ 1.031030 ] + 1000 * [ 1 / 1.031030 ]

                  = 36.25 * 19.3495 + 1000 * 0.4002

                  = $ 1101.58 Answer
