Answer:

11%

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: Kindly observe the organized question is attached as picture below

FV = 1000

Coupon amount = 1000*11.22% = 112.2

Close price = 102%

Price of bond in amount = Face value * quoted%

Price of bond in amount = 1000 * 102%

Price of bond in amount = 1020

Current yield formula = Coupon amount/price of bond

Current yield formula = 112.2/1020

Current yield formula = 0.11

Current yield formula = 11%
