に COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVE: Students will use electronic worksheets or other productivity tools to solve problems and develop models. EXCEL LEARNING OBJECTIVES: - Use the built-in formulas to determine the present value (PV) of a bond - Use the built-in formulas to determine the effective issuance rate of a bond with issue costs (RATE) - Set up an automated bond amortization schedule. - Name cells using the Name Box - Use Scenario Manager to create a scenario describing the effects of a change in the market interest rate (an independent variable) on the proceeds from issuing the bond (a dependent variable) and the corresponding total interest expense (a dependent variable) over the term of the bond.

Chapter 7 is about interest rates and bond valuation. Your WSJ article should be about bonds, not just interest rates. Discuss how and why bond values fluctuate. What is meant by interest rate risk and why is it related to a bond's maturity? What factors influence a bond's YTM? What is the difference between a coupon rate, yield to maturity, and current yield? What is Fisher effect and the relationship between real and nominal interest rates?

4. Bond valuation The process of bond valuation is based on the fundamental concept that the current price of a security can be determined by calculating the present value of the cash flows that the security will generate in the future. There is a consistent and predictable relationship between a bond's coupon rate, its par value, a bondholder's required return, and the bond's resulting intrinsic value. Trading at a discount, trading at a premium, and trading at par refer to particular relationships between a bond's intrinsic value and its par value. This also results from the relationship between a bond's coupon rate and a bondholder's required rate of return. Remember, a bond's coupon rate partially determines the interest-based return that a bond i reflects the return that a bondholder to receive from a given investment. pay, and a bondholder's required return The mathematics of bond valuation imply a predictable relationship between the bond's coupon rate, the bondholder's required…
