    YTM is 7.43%

    Explanation:

    The yield to maturity of a bond can be computed using the rate formula in excel, which is given below:

    =rate (nper, pmt,-pv, fv)

    the nper is the number of coupon interest the bond would pay before it is redeemed at maturity starting from, which is 15 years multiplied by 2=30

    the pmt is the semiannual coupon payable by the bond, which is $1000*9.1%/2=$45.5

    the pv is the price of the bond which is 115%*$1000=$1150

    the fv is the face value of the bond at $1000

    =rate (30,45.5,-1150,1000) = 3.715%

    The rate of 3.715% is a semi annual rate

    annual rate 7.43% (3.715%*2)
