    Yield to call is 9.8%

    Explanation:

    The rate of return bonholders receives on a callable bond until the call date is called Yield to call.

    Yield to Call = [ C + (F - P) / n ] / [ (F + P) / 2 ]

    C = Coupon Payment = $105 per year

    F = Face value = $1,000

    P = Call price = $1,100

    n - = number of years to call = 5

    Yield to Call = [ $105 + ($1,000 - $1,100) / 5 ] / [ ($1,000 + $1,100) / 2 ]

    Yield to Call = [ $105 - 2 ] / $1,050 = $103 / $1,050 = 0.098 = 9.8%
