$943.82
$1,064.44
$534.77
$2,054.22
none of these choices are correct.

The total cost of the bond is none of the given choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of a $1000 bond  =   $99.875

The brokerage fee = 5.5 %

Now, 5.5%  of $99.875 =

So, the brokerage fee = $5.493

Now, to find out the total cost of the bond:

Total Cost  = The selling Price + Brokerage Fee

                    = $99.875 + $5.493

                   =$ 105.368

or, the total price of the $1000 bond is $ 105.368.

Hence,  the total cost of the bond is none of the given choices.
