Clifford Clark is a recent retiree who is interested in investing some of his savings in corporate bonds. His financial planner has suggested the following bonds:

-Bond A has a 9% annual coupon, matures in 12 years, and has a $1,000 face value.

-Bond B has a 7% annual coupon, matures in 12 years, and has a $1,000 face value.

-Bond C has an 8% annual coupon, matures in 12 years, and has a $1,000 face value.

Each bond has a yield to maturity of 8%.

Mr. Clark is considering another bond, Bond D. It has a 9% semiannual coupon and a $1,000 face value (i.e., it pays a $45 coupon every 6 months). Bond D is scheduled to mature in 8 years and has a price of $1,170. It is also callable in 6 years at a call price of $1,030.
