Pleasant Innovations Ltd. had issued a series of 20-year bonds at 98% of face value (assume face value = $100). These bonds come with a coupon rate of 3% and will be paid semi-annually. By the start of year 5 from now, 5 years would have passed. Assume that the YTM remains constant over time. Justify your response with suitable computations?

Suppose you are considering two possible investment opportunities: a 12-yearTreasury bond and a 7-year, A-rated corporate bond. The current real risk-free rateis 4%, and inflation is expected to be 2% for the next 2 years, 3% for the following4 years, and 4% thereafter. The maturity risk premium is estimated by this formula:MRP = 0.02(t - 1)%. The liquidity premium (LP) for the corporate bond is estimatedto be 0.3%. You may determine the default risk premium (DRP), given thecompany’s bond rating, from the table below. Remember to subtract the bond’s LPfrom the corporate spread given in the table to arrive at the bond’s DRP. Whatyield would you predict for each of these two investments?RateCorporate Bond Yield
Consider a long forward contract to purchase a coupon-bearing bond whose current price is $910. We will suppose that the forward contract matures in 9 months. We will also suppose that a coupon payment of $45 is expected after 4 months. We assume that the 4-month and 9-month risk-free interest rates (continuously compounded) are, respectively, 3% and 4% per annum. Explain how an arbitrageur can make profits from this scenario.
