Respuesta :

Answer:

current market price = $953.29

Explanation:

the market price of the bond = present value of the face value + present value of coupon payments

PV of face value = $1,000 / (1 + 3.865%)¹⁸ = $505.31

PV of coupon payments = $35 x 12.79935 (PV annuity factor, 3.865%, 18 periods) = $447.98

current market price = $505.31 + $447.98 = $953.29
