    1,011.429 dollars

    Explanation:

    The dealer is willing to sale bond (we purchase from the dealer) at the ask price

    In this case 1,011.429 dollars per bond.

    If anyone want's to purchase those bonds will have to pay this amount per bond.

    The opposite to the ask price is the bid price, which is the price at which the dealer is willing to purchase bond (we sale it to the dealer).
