Answer #1

Maturity Value valueof ZeroCoupon Bond = = (1 + r)

Since ZCB dont pay coupons but pays bonds par value at maturity.

where r is the yield to maturity i.e. 5.3/2 = 2.65% _ _ _ (Semi-annual)

t is the total compounding periods i.e.  15 years* 2 = 30 periods

valueof ZeroCoupon Bond = 15,000 (1 + 0.0265)30

  - 6844.20

Price of Bond today will be $ 6844.20
