Explanation:

The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV) discounted at the yield rate  

Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV

The PV of interest payment

A ×(1- (1+r)^(-n))/r

Interest payment = 5%× 1000 = 50

PV = 50× (1- 1.08^(-18))/0.08 = 468.59

PV of redemption value  

PV = RV× (1+r)^(-n)

PV = 1000× 1.18^(-18) = 250.24

The value of bond = 468.59 + 250.24= 718.84

The value of Bond = $718.84
