bond price = semiannual coupon x [(1 - {1 / [1 + (maturity yield / 2)](years × 2)}) / (.0694 / 2)] + face value / [1 + (maturity yield / 2)](years × 2)

Bond price = $28.25 × [(1 - {1 / [1 + (.0694 / 2)](7 × 2)}) / (.0694 / 2)] +       $1,000 / [1 + (.0694 / 2)](7 × 2)

Bond price = $757,92 + $69.03 = $826.95
