- Imagine that a local water company issued 10,000 ten-year bond at an interest rate of 6. You are thinking about buying this bond one year before the end of the ten years, but interest rates are now 9. Given the change in interest rates, would you expect to pay more or less than 10,000 for the bond? Calculate what you would actually be willing to pay for this bond.Suppose Ford Motor Company issues a five year bond with a face value of 5,000 that pays an annual coupon payment of $150. What is the interest rate Ford is paying on the borrowed funds? Suppose the market interest rate rises from 3 to 4 a year after Ford issues the bonds. Will the value of the bond increase or decrease?Why are bonds somewhat risky to buy, even though they make predetermined payments based on a fixed rate of interest?
- Bond A pays $8,000 in 20 years. Bond B pays $8,000in 40 years. (To keep things simple, assume that theseare zero-coupon bonds, meaning the $8,000 is theonly payment the bondholder receives.)a. If the interest rate is 3.5 percent, what is the valueof each bond today? Which bond is worth more?Why? (Hint: You can use a calculator, but the ruleof 70 should make the calculation easy.)b. If the interest rate increases to 7 percent, what isthe value of each bond? Which bond has a largerpercentage change in value?c. Based on the example above, complete the twoblanks in this sentence: “The value of a bond[rises/falls] when the interest rate increases,and bonds with a longer time to maturity are[more/less] sensitive to changes in the interestrate.”2. Assume a bond with the following characteristics: face value = $1000; maturity = 5 years; N yearly coupon payments = $100. a. If the current price of this bond is $850, state what the formula is to calculate the bond's yield to maturity and state the range of interest rates where the yield to maturity should fall b. If you purchased this bond at face value and held it for 1 year, when you resold it for $850, what is the bond's rate of return?O If the market interest rate (i) increases today, the Price of a Bond (P) today will decline. The following are correct statements about the impact of Market Interest Rate (i*) on value and return of a typical Coupon Bond, EXCEPT: The YTM of a Bond and the Market Interest Rate (i*) are the same value, even in the Short Term. O For a long term bond, if the Market Interest rate (i*) is expected to increase, the current Price of such Bond will Decline. For a two period Bond, if the Market Interest rate (i*) is expected to increase in the next period, the Expected Total Return (RET) on such bond will decline. Long Term Bonds are considered more risky than Short Term bonds, in part due to the risk associated to changes in future interest rates.
- Suppose that you purchase a 2 year coupon bond at the time it is issued for $1100. The face value of the bond is $1000, with annual coupon payments of $80. a. What is the bond’s “coupon rate”? b. What is the bond’s “current yield”? c. What is the bond’s (nominal) “yield to maturity”? d. If you hold the bond for 1 year and sell it for $1035 (after collecting the first coupon payment), what is your “holding period rate of return”? Please answer all part otherwise Dounvote1) Assuming that the current interest rate is 3 percent, compute the present value of a 5-year, 5 percent coupon bond with a face value of $1000. What happens when the interest rate goes to 4 percent? 2). Which of these $100 face value one-year bonds will have the highest yield to maturity and why? a. A 6 percent coupon bond selling for $85. b. A 7 percent coupon bond selling for $100.The remarkable thing about the events described in the article is that the yield an the 3-month T-bill was briefly negative. To see how this could haroen, consider the relationship between bond prices and bond yields. A 3-month T-bill with a maturity value of $1,000 is just a piece of paper that entities the holder to $1,000 in three months. For example, if you were to buy a 3-month T-bill on September 24, 2008, with a maturity value of $1,000 and 90 days left to maturity, the U.S. government would pay you $1.000 on December 23, 2008. In general, the price of a bond is less than its maturity value. That is, if you are going to give up a certain amount of money for the duration of the bond, you expect to be paid for this loss of liquidity and compensated for inflation that could reduce the value of the repayment at the end of the period. Therefore, a piece of paper entitling you to $1,000 on December 23 would usually be worth less than $1,000 on September 24. The yield on a bond is a…
