    I would solve for par value by noting that the given info states "a bond has a $1,000 par value."

    Perhaps you needed to solve for a different variable (the bond's yield or IRR, say)? If so, post back in---with your attempts at arriving at the solution, natch---and a little bit o' guidance will be forthcoming.
