A bond with a 10% annual coupon matures in 6 years. The bond has a price of $1,200. What is the yield to maturity for this bond?
Question 3 options:
2.99% |
|
5.94% |
|
5.98% |
|
7.42% |
FV = $1,000
PV = $1,200
Nper = 6
PMT = 1000 * 10% = 100
Yield to maturity can be calculated by using the following excel
formula:
=RATE(nper,pmt,pv,fv)
=RATE(6,100,-1200,1000)
= 5.94%
Yield to maturity = 5.94%
