Answer: 10.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Face value (FV) = $1000

Coupon rate (C) = 10% paid semianually

Time to maturity = 20 years ; number of periods =( 20 * 2) = 40 (Semi-annual)

Current trading price of bond = 95% * 1000 = $950

Payment per period = (10%) / 2 * 1000 = 0.05 * 1000 = 50

Inputting the parameters above into the the yield to maturity calculator with semiannual payment,

Yield to maturity (YTM) = 10.6%
