    The answer is 5.73%

    Explanation:

    Given Coupon rate=5.5%; Years of maturity = 12years, Face value bonds = $1,000, Price=98.2

    NPER = Years of maturity * 2 = 12*2=24

    PMT = (Face value * coupon rate) / 2 = (1000*5.5) / 2 = 5500/2 = 2.75

    Therefore:

    Rate = (NPER, PMT, - Price, Face value) = (24, 2.75, - 98.2, 1000) = 2.87%

    Yield to maturity = Rate * 2 = 2.87*2 = 5.73%
