A
Summary Introduction
To calculate: Current yield, maturity time, and horizon yield for the bond with given information.
Introduction: Current yield is defined as the ratio of coupon price to the market price. For example coupon price is 500 and market price is 50 then current yields will be 10. Maturity time is the duration of the bond.

Bonds of Zello Corporation with a par value of $1,000 sell for $960, mature in five years, and have a 7% annual coupon rate paid semiannually.a. Calculate the:i. Current yield.ii. Yield to maturity to the nearest whole percent (i.e., 3%, 4%, 5%, etc.).iii. Realized compound yield for an investor with a 3-year holding period and a reinvestment rate of 6% over the period. At the end of three years the 7% coupon bonds with two years remaining will sell to yield 7%.b. Cite one major shortcoming for each of the following fixed-income yield measures:i. Current yield.ii. Yield to maturity.iii. Realized compound yield.
Compute the current yield on a bond with a yield to maturity of 7.3%, a par value of
$1000, a coupon rate of 4.0% paid semi-annually, a remaining life of 17 years? (Round to
100th of a percent and enter as a percentage, e.g. 12.34% as 12.34 and state as an annual
