单项选择题
Suppose that IBM has a $1000 par value bond outstanding with a 12 percent semiannual coupon that is currently trading at 102.25 with seven years to maturity. Which of the following is closest to the yield to maturity on the bond()
A. 11.21%.

答案
参考答案:C
解析:
To find the YTM, enter PV=-$1022.50, PMT=$60, N=14, FV=$1000 and solve for I/Y=5.76%. Now multiply by 2 for the semiannual coupon payments: 5.76×2=11.52%.
