Answer:

8.83%

Explanation:

For this question, we use the Rate formula which is shown in the attached spreadsheet

Given that,  

Present value = $935

Future value or Face value = $980

PMT = $75

NPER = 5 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER,PMT,-PV,FV,type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, the  realized rate of return earned on this bond is 8.83%
