Computation of Bond's Equivalent? Yield using Rate Function in Excel:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)*2

Here,

Rate = Bond's Equivalent? Yield = ?

Nper = 3 years * 2 = 6 Periods

PMT = $1,000*12%/2 = $60

PV = $970

FV = $1,046

Substituting the values in formula:

=rate(6,60,-970,1046)*2

Rate or  Bond's Equivalent? Yield = 14.55%
