You
are planning to retire in 14 years and would like to invest all your
current savings in bonds issued by your state. The bonds have the face
value of $5,000, annual coupon rate of 3.8 percent, and maturity of 26
years. The bonds are currently priced to yield 5.3 percent.
You
expect to be able to reinvest the semiannual coupon payments you will
receive over your investment horizon at the annual rate of 4.4 percent.
You also expect that the annual yield for comparable bonds at the time
you plan to sell your bonds in 14 years (end of your investment horizon)
will be 4.9 percent.
What is the expected annual realized compound yield of these bonds? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your final answers to 3 decimal places. (e.g., 32.167))
