    a. Accrued interest due to the seller from the buyer at settlement: $176.22.

    b. The dirty price of this transaction: $10,348.78.

    Explanation:

    a. The accrued interest due to seller from the buyer = Par value of the bond x coupon rate x number of days the last coupon was made before the settlement / 360 = 10,000 x 4.375% x 145/360 = $176.22.

    b. The Dirty price of the Bond = The quoted price of the bond (also known as the clean price) - the accrued interest due to seller from the buyer = (10,000 x 105.250%) - 176.22 = $10,348.78.
