find detailed computations in the attached.

Explanation:

The price of the bond can determined using the pv formula in excel as shown below:

=-pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

rate is the semiannual yield to maturity on the bond i.e 14%/2=7%

nper is the number of coupon interests the bond would pay which is 10 years *2 =20 coupon interests

pmt is the semiannual interest payment:$83,000,000*12%*6/12=$4,980,000.00=$4.98 million

fv is the face value of $83 million

=-pv(7%,20,4.98,83)=$74.21  million
