Explanation / Answer

Yield to maturity :

1. YTM = Coupon/ Interest payment + (Face value - Price) / number of years/ (face value + price)/2

= $ 1000 * 8% + ($ 1000 - $ 670)/30 / ($ 1000+ $ 670)/2

= $ 80 + $ 11 / $ 835 = 10.90%

2. YTM = $ 1000* 10% + ( $ 1000 - $ 1100 ) / 30 / ( $ 1000 + $ 1100 )/2

= $ 100 - $ 3.33/ $ 1050 = 9.21%

3. YTM = $ 5000* 11% + ( $ 5000 - $ 5000)/25/ ( $ 5000+ $ 5000)/2

= $ 550+ $ 0 / $ 5000 =  11 %

4. YTM = $ 1000 * 12% + ( $ 1000 -$ 1200 ) /5 / ( $ 1000+ $ 1200 )/2

= $ 120 -$ 40 / $ 1100 =  7.27%
