Answer:
926.46
Explanation:
The approaches I have chosen in determining the current bond price are a financial calculator and excel formula approaches as shown thus:
Financial calculator:
N=6( number of annual coupons in 6 years left to maturity)
I/Y=6.52( the yield on the bond)
PMT=50 (annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1000*5%)
FV=1000( face value which is $1000)
CPT PV=-$926.46
Excel PV function:
=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)
=-pv(6.52%,6,50,1000)=-$926.46
