Parrain

Answer: $‭325,592

Explanation:

Selling price of bond = Present value of coupon payments + Present value of Par value

No. of periods = 5 * 2 = 10 semi annual periods

Coupon payments = 300,000 * 8% * 1/2 = $12,000

Periodic interest = 6% / 2 = 3% per period

Selling price = (12,000 * Present value of annuity factor, 10 periods, 3%) + (300,000 * Present value of single sum, 10 periods, 3%)

= (12,000 * 8.5302) + (300,000 * 0.7441)

= $‭325,592
