Answer:
Yield to maturity is 6.6%
Explanation:
Yield to maturity is the annual rate of return that an investor receives if a bond bond is held until the maturity.
Face value = F = $1,000
Assuming Coupon payments are made annually
Coupon payment = $1,000 x 8% = $80
Selling price = P = $1,100
Number of payment = n = 13 years
Yield to maturity = [ C + ( F - P ) / n ] / [ (F + P ) / 2 ]
Yield to maturity = [ $80 + ( 1000 - 1100 ) / 13 ] / [ (1,000 + 1100 ) / 2 ]
Yield to maturity = [ $80 - 7.7 ] / 1100 = $72.3 /1100 = 0.066 = 6.6%
