1. An issuer has the following bonds outstanding: Bond A B Maturity (yrs) 3 Coupon (%) 5.50 4.50 Price 107.500 104.750 5 Calculate the market discount rate implied in the pricing (also called yield to maturity, or YTM) of both bonds. Assume coupons are paid annually. 107.500= 5.50/(1+r)1 + 5.50/(1+r)2 +107.5/(1+r)3+| Answer: 2. A zero-coupon bond matures in 15 years.
