Requirement 1.
Face Value of Bond = $1,000
Annual Coupon Rate = 6.00%
Semiannual Coupon Rate = 3.00%
Semiannual Coupon = 3.00% * $1,000
Semiannual Coupon = $30
Time to Maturity = 5 years
Semiannual Period = 10
Annual Interest Rate = 10.00%
Semiannual Interest Rate = 5.00%
Issue Value of Bond = $30 * PVA of $1 (5.00%, 10) + $1,000 * PV
of $1 (5.00%, 10)
Issue Value of Bond = $30 * 7.72173 + $1,000 * 0.61391
Issue Value of Bond = $845.56
