The bond will sell for the amount of $869.17
Explanation:
According to the given data coupon amount = 50/2 = 25

selling price of the bond = 25 * PVIFA(3%,52) + 1,000 * PVIF(3%,52)
selling price of the bond= 25 * 26.1662 + 1,000 * 0.2150
selling price of the bond= $869.17
The bond will sell for the amount of $869.17
