1) Computation of the annual coupon interest payments:-

Annual coupon interest payments = Par value * Coupon rate

=  $5,000*9.431%

= $471.55

 

2) Computation of the bond's current yield:-

Current yield = Annual coupon payment / Current price of bond

= ($5,000 * 7.921%) / ($5,000 * 133.518%)

= $396.05 / $6,675.90

= 5.93%
