Answer:

Yield to maturity =9.9%

Explanation:

The yield to maturity is the return on debt expressed in percentage.  It can be used to worked as follows using the formula below

YTM =( C + F-P/n) ÷ ( 1/2× (F+P))

C- annual coupon,  

F- face value ,

P- current price,  

n- number of years to maturity

YM - Yield to maturity

C- 9%× 1000 =90 , P- 92×1000= 920,  F- 1000

AYM = 90 + (1000-920)/15 ÷ 1/2× (1000+920)

= 95.33 ÷ 960

Yield to maturity =9.9%
