Explanation:

Price of the bond is the present value of all cash flows of the bond. These cash flows include the coupon payment and the maturity payment of the bond.

According to given data

Face value of the bond is $3,021,900

Coupon payment = C = $3,021,900 x 10% = $302,190 annually = $151,095 semiannually

Number of periods = n = 15 years x 2 = 30 period

Market Rate = 12% annually = 6% semiannually

Price of the bond is calculated by following formula:

Price of the Bond = C x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + r )^-n ) / r ] + [ F / ( 1 + r )^n ]

Price of the Bond = $151,095 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 6% )^-30 ) / 6% ] + [ 3,021,900 / ( 1 + 6% )^30 ]

Price of the Bond = $151,095 x [ ( 1 - ( 1 + 6% )^-30 ) / 6% ] + [ 3,021,900 / ( 1 + 6% )^30 ]

Price of the Bond = $2,079,797.2 + $526,143.4 = $2,605,940.6
