Answer:

d. stated as an annual rate of return and assume the bond is purchased today and held until maturity

Step-by-step explanation:

Bonds are financial debt instruments that are sold to investors in exchange for the interest or yeild they will generate over time.

Yield to maturity is the total yield that a bond will have from point of sale till maturity.

The yield is stated as an annual rate of return. For example 7% per year.

Usually the longer the maturity period of bonds the higher the yield of the bond
