Ryan has a $3000 bond with a 6% coupon. how much interest wil ryan receive for this bond every 6 months

I know 6% of $3000 is $180

But I don't understand the rest of the question.

Assuming Ryan has to pay the $3000 bond every 6 months, he would need to pay $2820.

Here is my reasoning:

6% of $3000 is $180.

Since the 6% off is a coupon, that would mean Ryan would get $180 off his $3000 bond.

Which means Ryan should have to pay $2820. ($3000 - $180 coupon).

I hope this is what you mean! If not, let me know and I will fix my answer! Have a great night Shalla9gomez! :)

add all the numbers and check the ones place.

the answer is 486. as the ones place is more than 4, the estimation will be the next 10 ie, 490
