(Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answer:

10.80%

Explanation:

For this question ,we use the RATE formula that is shown in the spreadsheet attachment. Kindly find it below:

Given that,  

Present value = 1,000 × 96% = $960

Assuming figure - Future value or Face value = $1,000  

PMT = 1,000 × 10.2% ÷ 2 = $51

NPER = (14 years - 2 years) × 2 = 24 years

The formula is shown below:  

= Rate(NPER;PMT;-PV;FV;type)  

The present value come in negative  

So, after solving this, the yield to maturity is 10.80%
