How do they get 40 as payments?

C ) 8.0 %

Semiannual rate = 7% / 2 = 3.5%

Nper = 10 years x 2 = 20

FV = $1,000

PV = $1,071.06

PMT =PMT(rate,nper,-pv,fv)

=PMT(3.5%,20,-1071.06,1000)

= $40.

Annual coupon payment = $40 x 2 = $80.

Coupon rate = (Annual coupon payment / Face value) x 100

= ($80 / $1,000) x 100

= 8.0%
