    Price of bonds = 761.51

    Explanation:

    We know that zero-coupon bonds does not give coupon payment to investor, the return to investor is difference between price and face value of bond is given.

    Formula: P = F / (1+r) ∧T

    where P = Price of bonds=?

    r=yield to maturity=5.6%=0.056

    T=5; No of periods, as in this it is not given semi annually, we will take r annually.

    P = 1000 / (1+.056) ∧5

    P = 1000/1.31316

    P = 761.
