Answer 1

$930.18

Step-by-step explanation:

The bond's current market price is its Present Value (PV). This is calculated as:

FV = $1,000

Pmt = $1,000 × 10% = $100

i = 11%

P/yr = 1

N = 14

PV = ?

Using a financial calculator to input the values as above, the bond's current market price (PV) is $930.18
