Today is December ${30}^{th},2023.$ You decide to purchase Bond A$,$ which has just been issued on December

${30}^{th},2023.$ Bond A is US Treasury bond that pays back a par value of $1,000$ USD at its maturity on June

${30}^{th},2025.$ It pays coupons based on a coupon rate of $8\%,$ and its first coupon payment will occur on

June ${30}^{th},2024.$ On December ${30}^{th},2023,$ all interest rates are constant at a semiannual value of $3\%.$

However, suppose that you expect interest rates to change right after the payment of the second

coupon on December ${30}^{th},2024,$ when you expect them to decrease and remain constant at $1\%$

semiannually. What is the expected realized yield, in semiannual terms, for a buy and hold investor

from December $30$th$,2023,$ until June $30$th $2025?$
