Explanation / Answer

D. Adonis must pay $210,000 on maturity plus 20 interest payments of $11,550 each.

NOte:

Though $223,087 is received in cash proceeds, we need to repay only the par value on maturity.

In this cash $210,000 being the par value will be repaid on maturity.

20 interest payments are made since, the bond is for 10 years and semi annual interest payements are made.

=>10 years * 2 semi annual interst payments

=>20 interest payments.

each semi annual interest payment = $210,000 * (11%) *(1/2)

=>$11,550.
