Answer:

Price of the Bond is $868.82

Explanation:

Market Value of the bond is the present value of all cash flows of the bond. These cash flows include the coupon payment and the maturity payment of the bond. Price of the bond is calculated by following formula:

Market Value of the Bond = C/2 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r/2 )^-2n ) / r/2 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + r/2 )^2n ]

Whereas

C = coupon payment = $110.00 (Par Value x Coupon Rate)

n = number of years = 7

r = market rate, or required yield = 14% = 0.14

P = value at maturity, or par value = $1,000

Price Value of the Bond = $110/2 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 14%/2 )^-2x7 ) / 14%/2 ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 14%/2 )^2x7 ]

Price Value of the Bond = $55 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 7% )^-14 ) / 7% ] + [ $1,000 / ( 1 + 7% )^14 ]

Price of the Bond = $481.0+$387.82

Price of the Bond = $868.82
