Answer:

7.64%

Explanation:

For computing the yield to maturity we have to applied the RATE formula i.e to be shown in the attachment

Given that,  

Present value = $1,000 × 101.25 = $1,012.50

Future value or Face value = $1,000  

PMT = 1,000 × 8% ÷ 2 = $40

NPER = 4 years × 2 = 8 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after applying the above formula,

The yield to maturity is

= 3.82% × 2

= 7.64%

Snowcat [4.5K]
I would say that B), C) and D) would apply as events that would be covered by one's own homeowner insurance for sure. The flooding, as long as it wasn't one's own fault, ie it was the neighbour's fault or it ingressed from outside for example should be covered by the building insurance if it is a strata complex and if one has a deductible for flooding in case of one's fault, that will help too.
