FYI, the answer is NOT 23.76% or 25.61%

You bought one of Bergen Manufacturing Co.'s 7.8 percent coupon bonds one year ago for $1,061. These bonds make annual payments and mature twelve years from now. Suppose you decide to sell your bonds today, when the required return on the bonds is 4.5 percent. If the inflation rate was 4.4 percent over the past year, what would be your total real return on the investment? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places (e.g.. 32.16).) Total real return %

Explanation / Answer

Real return = Nominal retrn -Inflation
