I am trying to calculate the following bond prices using a Financial Calculator.

It would be appreciated if someone can provide me with the solutions as well as a step by step approach using a financial calculator that will give me the desired result

There are 2 bonds in a portfolio. Each bond matures in 4 years, has a face value of $1000, and a yield to maturity of 9.6%.

One bond, Bond C, pays a coupon rate of 10%, the other bond, Bond Z, is a zero coupon bond.

Assuming that the yield to maturity of each bond remains at 9.6% over the next 4 years, what will be the price of each of the bonds at the following time periods? See table below
