问题如下：
Smith purchased a bond with a coupon rate of 6% and a par value of $1,000 for $960. Coupon payments are made monthly. The monthly interest payment is closest to:
选项：
A.$4.80. B.$5.00. C.$5.20.解释：
B is correct.
Since the coupon payments are paid monthly, therefore the monthly interest payment is 6% × $1,000/12 = $5.00
考点：Coupon rate and frequency
解析：由于债券是一个月付息一次的，所以一期的coupon rate = 6%/12 =0.5%，一期的interest payment = 0.5% × $1000 = $5，故选项B正确。
这里interest payment是IRR的概念吗？
PV=-1000,
FV=960,
N=12,
PMT= 1000*6%/12=5。
求IRR等于16.97？
