Rolling Company bonds have a coupon rate of 6.80 percent, 22 years to maturity, and a current price of $1,226. What is the YTM? The current yield? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.)
Annual coupon=1000*6.8%=$68
Approx Yield to maturity=[Annual coupon+(Face value-Present value)/time to maturity]/(Face value+Present value)/2
=[68+(1000-1,226)/22]/(1000+1,226)/2
=5.07%(Approx)
Current yield=Annual coupon/Current price
=68/1,226
=5.55%(Approx)
