Answer:

$1,035.71

Explanation:

first we must determine the annual interest = face value x coupon rate = $1,000 x 7.25% = $72.50

now to determine the approximate market value = annual interest / market interest rate = $72.50 / 7% = $1,035.71

since the market rate is lower than the coupon rate, you can sell your bond at a premium
