At this price, the bonds yield 6.3 percent. What must the coupon rate be on the bonds

5.694%

Explanation:

We use the PMT formula to determine the coupon rate i.e to be shown in the attachment below:

Given that,  

Present value = $956

Future value or Face value = $1,000  

RATE = 6.3%

NPER = 10 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after solving this, the PMT is $56.94

Now the coupon rate is

= $56.94 ÷ $1,000

= 5.694%
