    C) 14%

    Explanation:

    The nominal annual yield is exactly the same as the bond's annual coupon rate. The nominal annual yield is calculated as a fixed percentage of the bond's par value and it doesn't change if the market price of the bond increases or decreases.

    The bond's current yield is the actual interest rate that the bond is paying since its calculation is based on the bond's market price, not its par value.
