Answer:
Bond Price = $1115.075775 rounded off to $1115.08
Explanation:
To calculate the price of the bond today, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is an annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and annual YTM or market interest rate will be,
Coupon Payment (C) = 1000 * 0.067 = $67
Total periods (n) = 14
r or YTM = 0.055 or 5.5%
The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
Bond Price = 67 * [( 1 - (1+0.055)^-14) / 0.055] + 1000 / (1+0.055)^14
Bond Price = $1115.075775 rounded off to $1115.08

Answer:
6.53%
Explanation:
For computing the after cost of debt we need to use the RATE formula i.e to be shown in attached spreadsheet. Kindly find it below:
Given that,
Present value = $1,050.76
Future value or Face value = $1,000
PMT = 1,000 × 10% = $100
NPER = 5 years
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after applying this above formula
1. The pretax cost of debt is 8.70
2. And, the after tax cost of debt would be
= Pretax cost of debt × ( 1 - tax rate)
= 8.70% × ( 1 - 0.25)
= 6.53%
