Answer:

The current market price is $ 883.08  

Explanation:

The current market price can be ascertained using the pv excel function as follows:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

rate is the semiannual yield to maturity which is 5%/2

nper is the number of semiannual coupons in the bond i.e 10*2=20

pmt is the semiannual coupon=3.5%*1/2*$1000=$17.5

fv is the face value of the bond

=-pv(5%/2,20,17.5,1000)=$ 883.08
