The bond was sold at par 3 years ago. A bond sells at par if its YTM equals its coupon rate. Therefore, the coupon rate of the bond is 8%.
Annual coupon payment = face value * coupon rate = $1,000 * 8% = $80
Current yield = annual coupon payment / bond price
7.08% = $80 / bond price
bond price = $1,129.94
YTM is calculated using financial calculator with these inputs :
N = 24 (12 years to maturity with 2 semiannual coupon payments each year. Total number of semiannual coupon payments until maturity = 12 * 2 = 24)
PMT = 40 (Semiannual coupon payment = face value * annual coupon rate / 2 = $1000 * 8% / 2 = $40. This is a positive figure as it is an inflow to the bondholder)
PV = -1129.94 (Current bond price. This is a negative figure as it is an outflow to the buyer of the bond)
FV = 1000 (Face value of the bond receivable on maturity. This is a positive figure as it is an inflow to the bondholder)
CPT --> I/Y
I/Y is calculated to be 3.21%. This is the semiannual YTM. To calculate the annual YTM, we multiply by 2. Annual YTM is 6.43%
YTM to investor is 6.43%

4. Both Bond A and Bond B have 6% coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond A has three years to maturity, whereas Bond B has 20 years to maturity. If the interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent point to 8%, what is the percentage change in the price of Bond A and Bond B? If rates were to suddenly fall by 2 percent points to 4% instead, what would be the percentage change in...
