Answer:
Holding period yield is 114.97%
effective yield is 8.72%
Explanation:
holding period yield=(Price at call-initial price+coupon payments)/initial price
=($970-$935)+(13*$80)/$935
=($35+$1040
)/$935
=$1075/$935
=114.97%
The effective yield is the yield to call which can be computed using the excel rate formula:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of payments before the call which is 13
pmt is the periodic payment by bond which is $1000*8%=$80
pv is the current market price of $935
fv is the bond price at end of 13 years at $970
=rate(13,80,-935,970)
rate=8.72%
