    5.91%

    Explanation:

    The formula to compute the yield to maturity is shown below:

    Yield to Maturity = Interest Payment + Face Value - Price : years to maturity : Face Value + Price : 2

    where

    Interest payment = 5.2% * ¥100,000 = ¥5,200

    Price = 93% * ¥100,000

    = ¥93,000

    Years to Maturity = 14 Years

    So,

    Yield to Maturity = ¥5,200 + ¥100,000 - ¥93,000 : 14 : ¥100,000 + ¥93000 : 2

    = ¥5,700 : ¥96,500

    = 5.91%
