3         $18,171.43          $1,080.00         $908.57         $18,000.00

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Face value of bond = $18,000

Coupon rate = 6%

Annual coupon payment = $1,080 ($18,000 * 6%)

From an online financial calculator, the PV of the bond = $18,490.18:

N (# of periods)  3

I/Y (Interest per year)  5

PMT (Periodic Payment) = $1,080

FV (Future Value)  = $18,000

Results

PV = $18,490.18

Sum of all periodic payments = $3,240.00

Total Interest = $2,749.82
