A U.S. government bond matures in 10 years. Its quoted price is now 96.4, which means the buyer will pay $96.40 per $100 of the bond’s face value. The bond pays 5% interest on its face value each year. If $10,000 (the face value) worth of these bonds are purchased now, what is the yield to the investor who holds the bonds for 10 years? (5.3)
