(a) You invest $27,000 in a corporate bond selling for $900 per $1,000 par value. Over the coming year, the bond will pay interest of $75 per $1,000 of par value. The price of the bond at years end will depend on the level of interest rates that will prevail at that time. You construct the following scenario analysis:

Interest rate	Probability	Year-end bond price
High	0.20	$850
Unchanged	0.50	$915
Low	0.30	$985

Your alternative investment is a T-bill that yields a sure rate of return of 5%.
