hold it for $5$ years. You $($and the market$)$ have expectations that in $5$ years, the yield to maturity on a $15-$year bond with similar risk will be $7\mathrm{.}5\%.$ How much should

you be willing to pay for Bond $x$ today? $($Hint: You will need to know how much the bond will be worth at the end of $5$ years.$)$ Do not round intermediate calculations.
