You purchased a 5-year annual interest coupon bond one year ago. Its coupon interest rate was 6% and its par value was $1,000. At the time you purchased the bond, the yield to maturity was 4%. Suppose you decided sell the bond after receiving the first interest payment and the bond's yield to maturity had just changed to 3% , what would your annual total rate of return on holding the bond for that year have been approximately?

A zero-coupon bond is a security that pays no interest, and is therefore bought at a substantial discount from its face value. If stated interest rates are 4% annually (with quarterly compounding) how much would you pay today for a zero-coupon bond with a face value of $2,700 that matures in 6 years? Round your answer to the nearest cent
