    Presumably there is an answer in your Kaplan book, and so i don’t know why you are setting me the question – you should ask about whatever it is in the answer that you are not clear about.

    The market value is, as always, the present value of the future receipts (the interest and the redemption amount), discounted at the required returns. The required returns will be those given for govt bonds as adjusted by the credit spreads so as to give the returns required on the specific bond.
