Using the three-step method, compute the dirty price (to 3
decimal places) of a $100 face-value bond maturing on 15-Feb-29,
paying a 5%pa semi-annual coupons with a yield to maturity of 3%pa
for settlement on 05-May-20. Set out the intermediate calculations
for each of the three steps.
(Note there are 102 days between 05-May-20 and 15-Aug-2020.
There are 182 days between 15-Feb-2020 and 15-Aug-2020)
