Answer:
$880.31
Explanation:
Here for computing the new price of the bond we use the present value formula i.e. to be shown in the attachment
Given that,
Assuming Future value = $1,000
Rate of interest = 8.6% ÷ 2 = 4.3%
NPER = 8 years × 2 = 16
PMT = $1,000 × 6.5% ÷ 2 = $32.50
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after applying the above formula, the new price of the bond is $880.31
