Answer:
7.84%
Explanation:
Given:
Bond's par value (FV) = $1,000
Maturity (nper) = 25 × 2 = 50 periods (since it's semi-annual)
YTM (rate) = 0.0925÷2 = 0.04625 semi annually
Price of bond (PV) = $875
Calculate coupon payment (pmt) using spreadsheet function =pmt(rate,nper,-PV,FV)
PV is negative as it's a cash outflow.
So semi- annual coupon payment is $39.20
Annual coupon payment = 39.2×2 = $78.40
Nominal Coupon rate = Annual coupon payment ÷ Par value
= 78.4 ÷ 1000
= 0.0784 or 7.84%

Answer:
9.98%
Explanation:
Yield to maturity is the annual rate of return that an investor receives if a bond bond is held until the maturity. It is a long term return which is expressed in annual term.
As per given data
Annual Payment = $500
Current price = $5,012
$500 payment each year for indefinite period of time is a perpetuity, value of perpetuity can be calculated as follow
Current Price = Annual Payment / Yield to maturity
Yield to maturity = Annual Payment / Current Price
Yield to maturity = ( Annual payment / Current price ) x 100
Yield to maturity = ( $500 / $5,012 ) x 100
Yield to maturity = 0.0998 x 100
Yield to maturity = 9.98%
