To calculate the current yield of bonds.

We have the given par value of $1000, a market price of $750 and an interest rate of 6%.

Formula of current yield: 

Yield =  (interest rate * par value)/(market price) * 100%

         =  ((0.06 *  $1000)/$750) * 100%

         = ( $60/$750) * 100%

         =0.08 * 100%

         = 8%
