    In this question we are faced with a question which rate to use as the bonds YTM, either 11% or 9% but we will in this question use 11% because the question asks us how much are we willing to pay for the bond, and not its expected market price. So to find what we are willing to pay we will input these values in a financial calculator

    FV=10,000

    PMT = (0.07*10,000) = 700

    R = 11%

    N=10

    Compute PV

    PV=7,644

    We will be willing to pay $7,644 for this bond
