What is the yield to maturity of this bond (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Respuesta :

Answer:

5.91%

Explanation:

The formula to compute the yield to maturity is shown below:

Yield to Maturity = Interest Payment + Face Value – Price ÷years to maturity ÷ Face Value + Price ÷ 2

where

Interest payment = 5.2% ×  ¥100,000 =  ¥5,200

Price = 93% ×  ¥100,000

        =  ¥93,000

Years to Maturity = 14 Years

So,

Yield to Maturity =  ¥5,200 +  ¥100,000 -  ¥93,000 ÷ 14 ÷  ¥100,000 +  ¥93000 ÷ 2

=  ¥5,700 ÷  ¥96,500

= 5.91%
