Suppose that today you buy a bond with an annual coupon rate of 10 percent for $1,120. The bond has 17 years to maturity. What rate of return do you expect to earn on your investment

8.63%

Explanation:

The expected rate of return on the bond can be determined using a financial calculator bearing in mind that the calculator would be set to its end date before making the following inputs:

N=17(number of annual coupons in 17 years)

PMT=100(annual coupon=face value*coupon rate=$1000*10%=$100)

PV=-1120(the current price is $1,120)

FV=1000(the face value of the bon is $1000)

CPT

I/Y=8.63%

EXCEL APPROACH:

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

nper=N=17

=rate(17,100,-1120,1000)

rate=8.63%
