Answer:
Actual Yiel to maturity is 9.3%
Explanation:
Yield to maturity is the annual rate of return that an investor receives if a bond bond is held until the maturity.
Face value = F = $1,000
Coupon payment = $1,000 x 4% = $40
Selling price = P = $785
Number of payment = n = 5 years
Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]
Yield to maturity = [ $40 + ( $1,000 - $785 ) / 5 ] / [ ( 1,000 + $785 ) / 2 ]
Yield to maturity = [ $40 + $43 ] / $892.5 = $83 /$892.5 = 0.0645 = 0.093%
