Answer:

13.91% and 7.45%

Explanation:

In this question, we use the RATE formula that is shown below:

In the first case,

Given that,

Present value = $900

Assuming figure - Future value or Face value = $1,000

PMT = 1,000 × 12% = $120

NPER = 10 years

The formula is shown below:

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after solving this, the yield to maturity is 13.91%

In the second case,

Given that,

Present value = $900

Assuming figure - Future value or Face value = $1,000

PMT = 1,000 × 12% ÷ 2 = $60

NPER = 10 years

The formula is shown below:

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)

The present value come in negative

So, after solving this, the yield to maturity is 7.45%
