Answers

Here, Annual Coupon rate = 10%

Semi -Annual Coupon rate = 10%/2 = 5%

Term to maturity = 18 years 

Semi -Annual Periods = 18 years * 2 = 36

Let the Par Value of the Bond = $1000

Current Selling Price of Bond = 107.6% of Par Value = $1076

Part a

Using the Formula of Yield to Maturity 

C + EL N Semi -Annual YTM F+P 2 YTM = Semi - Annual Yield to maturity C = Semi - Annual Coupon payment F = Face Value P= Pric

Semi - Annual Yield to Maturity is 4.61%

Annual Yield to Maturity is 4.61%*2 = 9.22%

Part b 

Here,

Number of Compounding Periods = 2(As semi -annual periods means 6 months)

Nominal Interest rate = Annual Yield to Maturity = 9.22%

Using the Effective Annual Rate Formula

r = m Effective Annual Rate = (1+) - 1 1 Where, r = Nominal Interest rate m = Number of Compounding Periods in a year 0.0922

Answer: Part a Yield to Maturity of the Bond is 9.22%

             Part b  Effective Annual Yield is 9.43%
