    The dollar amount of interest that is receivable from the bond is $134.94

    Explanation:

    The amount of coupon interest receivable over a three year period can be computed as shown below

    Annual coupon interest=face value of the bond*annual coupon rate

    face value of the bond is $1000

    annual coupon rate is 4.498%

    annual coupon interest=$1000*4.498%=$44.98

    Three-year dollar amount of interest=annual coupon interest*3 years

    Three-year dollar amount of interest=$44.98*3

    Three-year dollar amount of interest=$134.94

    the three year dollar interest represents 13.49% return on the bond ($134.94/$1000)
