Answer #1

Par Value = $11000

Time to Maturity = 9 years

Payment frequency(m) = semiannually or 2

YTM (r)= 10%

r/m = 5%

Purchase price = $7656.78

C = Coupon Payment

We Know that as per annuity formula

Purchase price = (C/(r/m))[1-(1/(1+r/m)nm) + Pare Value / (1+r/m)nm

7656.78 = (C/0.05)[1-(1/(1.05)18) + 11000 / (1.05)18

3086.05 = C*11.69

C = 264

Coupon Rate = C*m/Par Value = 264*2/11000 = 4.8%
