    Hello Sir,

    I would really appreciate if you could help me with this.

    Could you show me the steps in calculating market value of the bond in this question?

    A bond has a coupon rate of 7%. It will repay its face value of $1000 at the end of six years. The market expects this type of bond to have a yield to maturity of 10%. Calculate the current market value for the bond.

    Thank you!

    The current price of the bond would be (Face value – discount )
    Thus
    $1000-(($1000×0.07)/(1+0.1)^6)
    =$1000 – $39.5132
    =$960.50 rounded
