Explanation:

The intrinsic value of the bond is the present value of the bond's future  cash flows, semiannual coupons for 3 years as well as the face value at the bond's maturity payable to bondholders.

N=6(there are 6 semiannual coupons in 3 years)

PMT=45(semiannual coupon=1000*9%*6/12=45)

I/Y=3.5(semiannual yield=7%*6/12=3.5%

FV=1000*(the face value of the bond is $1000)
