Answer:

The answer is 2.71 percent

Explanation:

The interest payment is annually.

N(Number of periods) = 12 years

I/Y(Yield to maturity) = ?

PV(present value or market price) = $1,470

PMT( coupon payment) = $73.5 ( [7.35 percent x $1,000)

FV( Future value or par value) = $1,000.

We are using a Financial calculator for this.

N= 12; PV = -1470 ; PMT = 73.5; FV= $1,000; CPT I/Y= 2.71

Therefore, the Yield-to-maturity of the bond annually is 2.71 percent
