B.$105.19.
C.$105.19 minus accrued interest.

Since the bond is trading ex-coupon,the buyer will pay the seller the clean price,or the price without accrued interest.So,Stone will pay the quoted price.The choice$105.19 plus accrued interest represents the dirty price(also known as full price).This bond would be said to trade cum-coupon.
