We can calculate the yield to maturity by using the following formula in excel:-

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

Here,

Rate = Yield to maturity

Nper = 5 periods

Pmt = Coupon payment = $100*5.5% = $5.5

PV = $106.68

FV = $100

Substituting the values in formula:

= rate(5,5.5,-106.68,100)

= 4% Or 0.04
