The cost of the debt is the YTM of the bond

N => 15*2=30 (15 years bond, paying semiannual, so 30 payments)

PV = -900 (The present value of the bond is $900)

PMT => 5% of 1,000 = 500/2 = 25 ( The coupon 5% is on Face Value and semiannual, so 25 per period)

FV = 1,000 (The Face value of bond is $1,000)

CPT + I/Y = 3.0109

So this YTM is semiannual, annual will be 3.0109*2= 6.0218

So the cost of the debt will be 6.0218%
