Answer:

The yield to maturity is 7.5%

The price of the bond at 9% yield to maturity is $934.96  

Explanation:

In calculating the yield I used the rate formula in Excel, rate formula is given as:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

nper is period to maturity of 10 years multiplied by 2(semi-annual compounding)

pmt is the coupon interest payable semi-annually which  8%*$1000/2=$40

pv is the current price of $1034.74

fv is the face value of $1000

=rate(20,40,-1034.74,1000)

=3.75%

APR=3.5%*2=7.5%

Bond price is the present value of the bond at yield of 9% with semi-annual yield of 4.5%

=pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv)

=pv(4.5%,20,40,1000)

pv=$934.96

Bad White [126]

Answer:

a. 324%

b. 16.61%

Explanation:

a. The computation of the APR is the annual rate of interest which is shown below:

= Interest per month × number of months in a year

= 27% × 12 months

= 324%

b. And, the  effective annual rate would be

=  (1 + interest rate per month) ^ Number of months in a year - 1

= (1 + 27%) ^ 12 -1

= 1.27 ^ 12 -1

= 17.6053 - 1

= 16.61%
