Answer:

Price of the Bond

a. 3 percent = $701.38

b. 7 percent = $444.01

c. 11 percent = $285.84

Explanation:

since the bonds do not pay any coupon, in order to determine its price all you need to do is to determine the present value of the bonds' face value using the present value formula:

3% ⇒ PV = $1,000 / (1 + 3%)¹² = $701.38

7% ⇒ PV = $1,000 / (1 + 7%)¹² = $444.01

11% ⇒ PV = $1,000 / (1 + 11%)¹² = $285.84
