The Prime Rate has increased from 3.25% to 4.25%, it means the increase of 1%. Hence the A.P.R. Shall also increase by 1%.
Hence the correct answer is:

Answer:
7.32%
Explanation:
<em>The price of a bond is the present of its interest payment and the present value of redemption value (RV</em>
Present value of the Redemption Value (RV) =
FV× (1+r/2)^(-2×n)
FV- 2000, r- yield rate, r/2= 6.74%/2 = 3.37%, n-22
=2000× (1.0337)^(-2×22)
= 465.233
Present Value of the coupon payment =Price of bond - PV of RV
= (106.657% × 2000) - 465.233
= $1667.90
PV of coupon payment= A × (1-(1+r)^(-2×n)
A- semiannual coupon payment, r -yield
1667.90 = A × (1-(1.0337)^(-2*22))/0.0337
1,667.90 = A × 22.7710
A = 1,667.90/22.7710
A= 73.246
Annual coupon payment = 2× 73.246= 146.493
Annual coupon rate = coupon payment/ face value
= (146.493/2,000 )× 100
= 7.32%
