    Answer: A.) $1,095

    Explanation:

    Bond value = $30,000

    Rate = 7%

    Period = 10 years

    Issue price = $29,100

    Bond value * rate:

    30,000 * 0.07 = $2100

    Semi annually:

    $2100 / 2 = $1050

    (Bond value - issue price) : (period * 2)

    ($30,000 - $29,100) / (10 * 2)

    $900 : 20 = $45

    $1050 + $45 = $1,095
