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

Respuesta :

Answer:

a. 4.89%

b. 5.23%

Explanation:

We use the rate formula which is shown in the attached spreadsheet

Given that,  

Present value = $2,000 × 108.96% = $2,179.20

Future value or Face value = $2,000  

PMT = $2,000 × 5.7% ÷ 2 = $57

NPER = 16 years × 2 = 32 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after solving this,  

a. The yield to maturity of the bond is 4.89%

b. The current yield would be

= 57 × 2 ÷ $2,179.20

= 5.23%

Now NPER is = 16 years × 2 = 32 years

Then The formula is shown below:  

That is, = Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

Then The present value come in negative  

a. Hence, The yield to maturity of the bond is 4.89%
