If you actually sell the bond before it matures, your realized return is. known as the holding period yield (HPY). (Round the final answers to 2 decimal places.) a. Suppose that today you buy an 9.5% annual coupon bond for $ 1,210. The bond has 19 years to maturity. What rate of return do you expect to earn on your investment? Expected rate of return % b-1. Two years from now, the YTM on your bond has declined by 1%, and you decide to sell. What price will your bond sell for? (Omit $ sign in your response.) Bond price $ b-2. What is the HPY on your investment? HPY%
Consider two bonds, a 3-year bond paying annual coupons at 5% and a 10-year bond also paying annual coupons at 5%. Coupons are paid annually (not semiannually). Both are currently trading at par (i.e., price = face value). A. What must be the current discount rate for these bonds? B. Suppose that the discount rate for these bonds suddenly rise to 9%. What is the new price of the 3-year bond? What is the new price of the 10-year bond? C. Compare the price changes (i.e., the current price of $1,000 vs. the new bond price from Part B) of two bonds. Determine whether long-term or short-term bonds are more sensitive to interest rate fluctuation.
What is a bond’s current yield if it’s ytm is 10% and it’s current price is 900. It pays coupons of 6% and has 6 years to maturity. Face value is 1000. What is current yield? Current Price is given as 900. What if it was not given?
Using the following spot rate for pricing the bond, what is the present value of a 3- year security that pays a fixed annual coupon of 6%? Year 1: 4.5% Year 2: 5.0% Year 3: 6.0% $1,010 O $1,002 $998
A bond that matures in 9years has a $1,000 par value. The annual coupon interest rate is 14 percent and the market's required yield to maturity on a comparable-risk bond is 16 percent. A. What would be the value of this bond if it paid interest annually? (Round to the nearest cent) B. What would be the value of this bond if it paid interest semiannually? (Round to the nearest two decimnal places)
A bond that matures in 7.5 years and pays semi-annual payments of 20.1 is priced at 98.70. What is the coupon rate if the face value is, as always, 1,000? ( well explain all point of question with proper answer).
Consider a bond (with par value = $1,000) paying a coupon rate of 10% per year semiannually when the market interest rate is only 4% per half-year. The bond has three years until maturity. Required: a. Find the bond's price today and six months from now after the next coupon is paid. b. What is the total (6-month) rate of return on the bond? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below. Required A Required B Find the bond's price today and six months from now after the next coupon is paid. Note: Round your answers to 2 decimal places. Current price Price after six months $ $ 1,052.42 1,044.52
What is the current value of a 30-year bond making semi-annual coupon payments that has a face value of $1,000 and a coupon rate of 8%, if the YTM is 4%, how much does the bond currently sell for? Does the bond sell at a discount, premium, or at face value? Reference the below formulas when solving the problem above: PV = FV / (1+r)^t FV = PV(1+r)^t FVA = PMT(((1+r)^t) -1) / r FVA = PMT((1+(r/12)^t(12))-1)/(r/12) PVA = PMT(((1-(1+r)^-t) / r)) PVA = PMT((1-(1+(r/12))^-t(12)))/(r/12) Bo = PMT ((1-(1+r/2)^-t(2))) / r/2 + FV / (1+r/2)^t(2)
Suppose that the term structure of interest rates is: Interest rates are annual interest rates that are semi-annually compounded. Calculate the price and modified duration of a 1 -year bond with a 6% coupon rate, with coupons paid semi-annually. The bond has a face value of 100.0 Calculate the price and modified duration of a 2 -year bond with a 10% coupon rate, with coupons paid semi-annually. The bond has a face value of 100.0 Compare your results from 1 and 2 above. Which bond is more sensitive to changes in interest rates?
If the YTM on a bond is 11.1 %, what will be the periodic rate assuming the bond is paying coupons semi-annually? (Write this number as a decimal and not as a percentage, e.g. 0.11 not 11%. Round your answer to three decimal places. For example 1.23450 or 1.23463 will be rounded to 1.235 while 1.23448 will be rounded to 1,234).
For a one year fixed coupon bond, if the coupon rate is 10%, the face value is Rs 100 and the interest rate in the market is 5%. (6 Marks) What is the price of the bond? What is the new price of the bond if the interest rates in the market increases to 10%? What is the new price of the bond if the interest rates in the market decreases to 3%?
