    Price of Bond = $907.766

    Explanation:

    The price of the bond is the present value of its future cash flow discounted at the required rate of return of 5.5%.

    Price of Bond = PV of interest payment + PV of redemption value

    PV of interest payment:

    interest payment = 5.5% * 1000 = 55

    PV = A * (1+r) ^ (-n) / r

    A - 55, r - 7%, n - 10 years

    PV = 55, r - 5.5%, n - 10

    PV = 55 * 1.07^ (-10) / 0.07 = 399.417301

    Present Value of redemption

    PV = F * (1+r) ^ (-n)

    F = 1000, r - 7%, n - 10 years

    PV = 1,000 * 1.07^ (-10) = 508.3492921

    Price of Bond = 508.3492921 + 399.417301 = 907.7665931

    Price of Bond = $907.766
