Answer:
$1,247.12
Explanation:
For computing the asked price we need to apply the present value formula i.e to be shown in the attachment below
Given that,
Future value = $1,000
Rate of interest = 4.151% ÷ 2 = 2.076%
NPER = 17 years × 2 = 34 years
The 20 years come from May 2019 to May 2036
PMT = $1,000 × 6.193% ÷ 2 = $30.965
The formula is shown below:
= -PV(Rate;NPER;PMT;FV;type)
So, after applying the above formula, the present value or the ask price is $1,247.12
