Explanation / Answer
The price of the bond is the present value of the interest and principal amount discounted at market rate.
The interest payments are semi-annual.So, the contract rate shall be 6/2=3% per half year and semi-annual interest payments will be $1,000,000*3%=$30,000.
The life is 3 years, hence, the period shall be taken as 3*2=6 [this is because the payments are made semi-annually]
and the discounting rate,that is, the market rate shall be 8/2=4% per half year.
Now, lets calculate value of the bond:
You can get the PVAF (present value annuity factor) and PVF (present value factor) from the respective tables, or also on a calculator.These have been rounded off in the above answer.
Hence, price of the bond is option C.947578.63
The bond discount is =Par value of bond-price of bond
=1000000-947578.63=52421.37 i.e option A.
