Answer:

The answer is 1016.69

Explanation:

Solution

Given that:

Coupon payment = 1000 * 0.05 / 4 = 12.5

Now,

The cash flow at

                                    Rate          Discount factor

3 months = 12.5          2.25%       1/1 + (0.0225/4) =0.9944

6 months = 12.5          2.45%       0.9897

9 months = 12.5          2.95%       0.9789

I year       = 12.5           3.35%       0.9676

Now,

The present value =

12 .5 * ( 0.9944 + 0.9897 +0.9789)

+

1012 * (0.9676 = 1016.69
