Consider the situation where zero rates, measured with continuous compounding, are as in the below table. Suppose that a two$-$year bond with a principal of $$100$ provides coupons at the rate of $8\%$ per annum semiannually. What is the theoretical price of the bond.

$\backslash$table$[[$Maturity $($years$),$Zero rate $(\%)$ with continuous compounding$],[0\mathrm{.}5,5],[1\mathrm{.}0,6],[1\mathrm{.}5,7],[2\mathrm{.}0,8]]$

$$99\mathrm{.}60$

$$99\mathrm{.}25$

$$99\mathrm{.}02$

$$99\mathrm{.}89$
