Answer: 11.14%
Explanation:
Buying price of bond = $936.05 -PV
Years investment held = n= 5*2
Rate of the Coupon = C = 8.4%
Frequency of payment = m= 2
Annual coupon = $1,000 × (0.084/2) = $42
Realized yield = i
Selling price of bond = PB = $1,048.77 = FV
Enter N= 10, PMT = $42, PV= -$936.05$, FV = 1,048.77
Answer 5.425%
The effective annual yield can be computed as:
EAY = (1+ Quoted m)^m -1
= (1+0.054)^2 - 1
=(1.054)^2- 1
=0.1114= 11.14
