We need to set the above figures into the financial calculator to find out the Yield to Maturity of the Bond. After entering the above keys in the financial calculator, we get the semi-annual yield to maturity (YTM) on the bond = 3.72%.
The semi-annual Yield to maturity = 3.72%.
Therefore, the annual Yield to Maturity of the Bond = 7.44% [3.72% x 2]
“Hence, the Yield-to-Maturity (YTM) of the Bond will be 7.44%”
