Answer:

Current yield = 7.14%

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that: current yield = Annual coupon payment/Current market price of bond

= 75/1050

= 7.14%

this rate represents for an investor would expect to earn because face vale and market price of bonds differs so the investor much rely on that factor.
