Answer #1

a)
FV = 100
PV = 99.49
Nper = 3 * 2 = 6
PMT = 100 * 5.3% / 2 = 2.65

Yield to maturity can be calculated by using the following excel formula:
=RATE(nper,pmt,pv,fv)*2
=RATE(6,2.65,-99.49,100)*2
= 5.49%

Yield to maturity = 5.49%

b)

FV = 100
PV = 99.49
Nper = 2 * 2 = 4
PMT = 2.65

Yield to call can be calculated by using the following excel formula:
=RATE(nper,pmt,pv,fv)*2
=RATE(4,2.65,-99.49,100)*2
= 5.57%

Yield to call = 5.57%


c)
Yield to worst is the lowest of yield to maturity and yield to call.
Thus, Yield to worst = 5.49%
