Answer:

$880.72

Explanation:

Bond price will be calculated by following formula

Bond Price = C x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F x ( 1 + r )^-n ]

Bond Price = $87 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 0.107 )^-10 ) / 0.107 ] + [ $1,000 x ( 1 + 0.107 )^-10 ]

Bond Price = $87 x [ ( 1 - ( 1.107 )^-10 ) / 0.107 ] + [ $1,000 x ( 1.107 )^-10 ]

Bond Price = $518.87 + $361.85

Bond Price = $880.72
