This was the answer I received for this problem. However, it reviewing my homework, it seems like they should have been solved this way, can you explain why?

Part a.

Why not this?

PV = 1/.025 (1-1/1.025^20) + (100/1.025^20) = 76.61626

Part b.

66.11178 = 100/ (1+Y)^6

y = (100/66.11178) ^ 1/6-1

y= 0.0714505

or 7.1405 annual rate compounded semi annually
