Whether the coupon rate of the bond in the previous problem is more or less than 9%

Introduction:

A bond is a security that creates an obligation on the issuer to make specified payments to the holder for a given period of time.

The face value of the bond is the amount the holder will receive on maturity along with the coupon rate which is also known as the interest rate of the bond.

Yield to maturity is termed as the discount rate that makes the present payments from the bond and its price are equal. In simple terms, it is the average rate of return a holder can expect from that bond.
