Yields refer to the return on the investment made by an investor.
A bond yield refers to the return earned by the investor on the bond, if he or she holds the bond until the bond matures.

make semiannual payments. What must the coupon rate be on the bonds? (Hint:

calculated by adding up the total amount of payments in a year made by a bond,
then dividing it by the face value of the bond.)

percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.
