calculation Problem

You cannot be asked to calculate the redemption yield, but you are expected to know what it is. Since the redemption will be at $100 which is lower than the market value of $120, the redemption yield will be lower that the interest yield. Only one of the answer (c) has this.
Our free lectures deal with this :-)
