    = $1910.42

    Explanation:

    The value of the bond is the present value (PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).

    Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV

    The value of bond for Kasey Corp can be worked out as follows:

    Step 1

    PV of interest payments

    Semi annul interest payment

    = 5.64% * 2000 * 1/2

    = $56.4

    Semi-annual yield = 6.1/2 = 3.05% per six months

    Total period to maturity

    = (2 * 15) = 30 periods

    PV of interest =

    = 56.4 * (1 - (1+0.0305^ (-30) / 0.0305)

    = $1098.354

    Step 2

    PV of Redemption Value

    = 2,000 * (1.0305) ^ (-30)

    = 812.063

    step 3

    Price of bond

    = 1098.35 + 812.06

    = $1910.42
