Face value = QAR 105500

YTM = 0.85%

Period to maturity = 6 months i.e. 6x30 = 180 days

Selling price of commerical paper is:

= Face value / [(1+ YTM)x ( number of days to maturity/365)]

= 105500 /[1+0.0085)x(180/365)]

= 105500/0.49734246575

=QAR 212127.47

Hence price of the commercial paper is

QAR 212127.47
