Respuesta :

Answer:

$1,008.18

Explanation:

Using a financial calculator, you can calculate the price of this bond with the following inputs;

Maturity of the bond; N= 3

Face value ; FV = 1000

Annual coupon payment; PMT = 7% *1000 = 70

Yield to maturity ; I/Y = 6.69%

then compute the Price;  CPT PV = 1,008.182

Therefore, the current price is $1,008.18
