    Why the interest calculated on 8% not 6% as interest are calculated on coupon rate

    The question has not given the Bond Par Value. It just says the Issue Price. Now the Coupon Rate is 6% and Yield is 8%. It means the Bond is issued at Discount, so as to make the Interest amount equal to 8%. That is why the Interest expense is calculated as 8% and not 6%.
