    When calculating spot yield

    For example three years there is redemption plus interest

    105 (1+r)^-3. 88.65

    The answer is 5.8%

    When I do it on calculator I can’t solve this equation for r .

    Would you please rearrange this ..in a way I get r = 5.8 %

    Thank u

    (1+r)^-3 is another way of writing 1/((1+r)^3)

    Now you should be able to get the answer 🙂
