a. 7 percent.
b. 10 percent.
c. 13 percent.

The Present value factor for maturity value is applied and Annuity Present value factor for Interest payments is applied for computing the present values of both.
The sum of both the present values is Current price of bonds, which is computed as $ 1117.28
when yield to maturity is 10%
All the step remain same except the discount factor which now has to be table at 5% (i.e. 10%/2) instead of 3.50% earlier.
The current price of bonds at 10% maturity yield is $ 817.44
When Yield to maturity is 13%:
All the steps remain same except the discount factor which now ...
