Answer:

c. 7.45%

Explanation:

The yield to call is the rate of return that a bondholder earns when he holds a callable bond until the call date.

With a financial calculator, you can solve this question using the following inputs;

Total duration to the bond being called ; N = 5

Price of the bond ; PV = -1,280

Annual coupon payment ; PMT = 135

The call value at year 5 will be the Face value at that time hence FV = 1,050

Compute the rate ; CPT I/Y = 7.45%

Therefore, the Yield to Call(YTC) is 7.45%
