    Answer: 5.33%

    Explanation:

    Use a financial calculator to get this faster.

    On the calculator input the following.

    FV = 1,000 because when it matures in 18 years it will be worth this

    PV = - 1007.49 as that is the current value. Should be in negative.

    PMT = 54 because the coupon payments are 5.4% from the par of $1,000 which is $54.

    N = 18

    Click compute / CPT and then click I/Y.

    You should get a YTM of 5.33%.
