Answer:
5.47%
Explanation:
The computation of yield to maturity is shown in the attachment:
Given that
FV = $1000
PV = ($980)
PMT = 5% ÷ 2 × 1,000 = $25
Number of years = 5 years × 2 = 10 Years
The formula is shown below:
= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)
The present value come in negative
So, after applying the above formula, the yield to maturity is
= 2.73 × 2
= 5.46%
Therefore with the help of spreadsheets (as attached), we could explain in a better manner.
