dlinn [17]

Answer:

4.95%    

Explanation:

For computing the yield to maturity when expressed in real terms, first we have to find out the yield to maturity by applying the RATE formula that is shown in the attachment

Given that,  

Present value = $989.40

Future value or Face value = $1,000  

PMT = 1,000 × 7% ÷ 2 = $35

NPER = 10 years × 2 = 20 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after solving this,  the yield to maturity is 7.15%    

Now in real terms, it would be

= 7.15% - 2.2%

= 4.95%
