Formula = L +(Nl/Nh-Nl)x (H-L)
= 5% + (1.57/18.61)(7%)
=.05+.323(.05)
=5.59%
It is to be noted that
interest rate is discounted by annuity factor, because it is a regular payment,
while redemption value is discounted at straight discounting factor (at once),
because it is onetime payment in five year.
