Answer:
3.66%
Explanation:
The yield to maturity can be computed using Excel rate function below:
=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)
nper is the number of semiannual coupons in 9 years i.e 9*2=18
pmt is the amount of semiannual coupon =$1000*4.8%*6/12=24
pv is the current price which is $1087.43
face value is $1000
=rate(18,24,-1087.43,1000)
rate=1.83% (semiannual yield)
annual yield=1.83%*2
annual yield=3.66%
