Answer:

rounding to two decimal places: 11.11%

Explanation:

we can se the approximate formula for YTM

[tex]YTM = \frac{C + \frac{F-P}{n }}{\frac{F+P}{2}}[/tex]

C=  57.5 (1,000 x 11.5%/2)

Face value = 1000

P= 1050 (market value)

n= 24 (12 years x 2 payment per year)

[tex]YTM = \frac{57.5 + \frac{1,00 - 1,050}{24}}{\frac{1,000+1,050}{2}}[/tex]

semiannual YTM =  5.4065041%

This is a semiannual rate as we consider semiannula payment.

We need to convert into annual rate:

[tex](1 + 0.054065041)^{2}  - 1 [/tex]

YTM 11.1053109921343000%

rounding to two decimal places: 11.11%
