Answer:

bond's current market value = $921.56

Step-by-step explanation:

the current market price of the bond is calculated by adding:

  • present value of bond's face value = $1,000 / (1 + 12%)²⁵ = $58.82
  • present value of coupon payments = $110 x 7.8431 (PV annuity factor, 12%, 25 periods) = $862.74

bond's current market value = $921.56
