Answer:

5.36%

Explanation:

We would need to calculate the yield to maturity of the current bonds:

YTM = {coupon + [(face value - market value)/n]} / [(face value + market value)/2]

  • coupon = $1,000 x 6% x 1/2 = $30
  • face value = $1,000
  • market value = $1,083
  • n = 20 x 2 = 40

YTM = {$30 + [($1,000 - $1,083)/40]} / [($1,000 + $1,083)/2] = $27.925 / $1,041.50 = 0.026812 x 2 = 0.05362 = 5.36%

Since the bond's coupon rate is higher than the market rate, the bonds are sold at a premium. In order to sell bonds at the par value, you must lower the coupon rate.
