                  K = Nx2
Bond Price =? [(Semi Annual Coupon)/(1 + YTM/2)^k]     +   Par value/(1 + YTM/2)^Nx2
                   k=1
                  K =15x2
Bond Price =? [(8.75*1000/200)/(1 + 6.5/200)^k]     +   1000/(1 + 6.5/200)^15x2
                   k=1
Bond Price = 1213.55
                  K = Time to callx2
Bond Price =? [(Semi Annual Coupon)/(1 + YTC/2)^k]     +   Call Price/(1 + YTC/2)^Time to callx2
                   k=1
                  K =6x2
1213.55 =? [(8.75*1000/200)/(1 + YTC/200)^k]     +   1050/(1 + YTC/200)^6x2
                   k=1
YTC% = 5.27
