    Treasury Note $9,784.4

    Corporate Bond $10,325

    Municipal Bond $10,190

    Explanation:

    Bonds are quoted on discount or premium prices, the quoted price under 100 is on discount and over 100 is on premium.

    Treasury Note

    It is quoted at the discounted price of 97.844% of par

    Face value = $1,000

    Value of Note = $1,000 x 97.844% = $9,784.4

    Corporate Bond

    It is quoted at the premium price of 103.25% of par

    Face value = $1,000

    Value of Note = $1,000 x 103.25% = $10,325

    Municipal Bond $10,190

    It is quoted at the premium price of 101.90% of par

    Face value = $1,000

    Value of Note = $1,000 x 101.90% = $10,190
