Stewart County School District is about to raise funds for a new school through a bond issue. The plan is to raise $3,475,000 with a 2.85% coupon, 10-year bond. The underwriter indicates the bonds will be sold at a price of $101.15 per $100. The yield to maturity on the bond is:
Yield to maturity = RATE(number_of_periods, payment_per_period, present_value, [future_value], [end_or_beginning], [rate_guess])
=>
YTM = RATE(10, 100 * 0.0285, -101.15,100)
= 2.72%
