- Suppose the real risk-free rate is 2.5%, the average future inflation rate is 2.3%, a maturity premium of 0.07% per year to maturity applies, i.e., MRP = 0.07% (t), where t is the years to maturity. Suppose also that a liquidity premium of 1% and a default risk premium of 0.7% applies to A-rated corporate bonds. How much higher would the rate of return be on a 7-year A-rated corporate bond than on a 5-year Treasury bond. Here we assume that the pure expectations theory is NOT valid. O 1.84% O 1.64% O 1.44% O 1.24% 1.04%Consider the following bonds: Bond A B CD с Coupon Rate (annual payments) 0.0% 0.0% 4.3% 7.7% The percentage change in the price of bond A is |___%. (Round to one decimal place.) What is the percentage change in the price of each bond if its yield to maturity falls from 6.9% to 5.9%? The percentage change in the price of bond B is %. (Round to one decimal place.) Maturity (years) 15 The percentage change in the price of bond C is %. (Round to one decimal place.) The percentage change in the price of bond D is %. 21500Which bond is more sensitive to an interest rate change of 1 percent? Bond A: Yield to maturity = 4.00%, maturity = 8 years, coupon = 6% or £60, face value = £1,000. OR Bond B: Yield to maturity = 3.50%, maturity = 5 years, coupon = 7% or £70, face value = £1,000. A. Bond A B. Bond B C. Cannot be determined D. Both are equally sensitive.
- Calculate YTC using a financial calculator by entering the number of payment periods until call for N, the price of the bond for PV, the interest payments for PMT, and the call price for FV. Then you can solve for 1/YR YTC. Again, remember you need to make the appropriate adjustments for a semiannual bond and realize that the calculated 1/YR is on a periodic basis so you will need to multiply the rate by 2 to obtain the annual rate. In addition, you need to make sure that the signs for PMT and FV are identical and the opposite sign is used for PV; otherwise, your answer will be incorrect. A company is more likely to call its bonds if they are able to replace their current high-coupon debt with less expensive financing. A bond is more likely to be called if its price is above par-because this means that the going market interest rate is less than its coupon rate. Quantitative Problem: Ace Products has a bond issue outstanding with 15 years remaining to maturity, a coupon rate of 8.4%…A plot of the yields on bonds with different terms to maturity but the same risk, liquidity, and tax considerations is known as O A. a yield curve. B. a risk-structure curve. OC. a term-structure curve. 5- O D. an interest-rate curve. Suppose people expect the interest rate on one-year bonds for each of the next four years to be 3%, 6%, 5%, and 6%. If the expectations theory of the term structure of interest rates is correct, then the implied interest rate on bonds with a maturity of four years is nearest whole number). %.

Use the point drawing tool to locate the interest rates on the next four years. 5. 3- Interest Rate .....28. A bond has duration of 5 years and a yield to maturity of 9 percent. If the yield to maturity changes to 11 percent, what should the percentage price change of the bond?

What is the yield to maturity of each bond? b. What is the duration of each bond? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below.

Bond Coupon YTM (%) 2 4 6.00 % 7.42% 8 7.01 %The value of any financial asset is the present ✓ value of the cash flows the asset is expected to produce. For a bond with fixed annual coupons, its value is equal to the present value of all its annual interest payments and its maturity value as shown in the equation below: Bond's value = VB: Int. Int. (1+ra)² (1+ra)² N + ·+...+ Int. M + (1+ra)* (1+ra) Int. M (1+ra) (1+ra)N + We could use the valuation equation shown above to solve for a bond's value; however, it is more efficient to use a financial calculator. Simply enter N as years to maturity, I/YR as the going annual interest rate, PMT as the annual coupon payment (calculated as the annual coupon interest rate times the face value of the bond), and FV as the stated maturity value. Once those inputs are entered in your financial calculator, you can solve for PV, the value of the bond. Remember that the signs for PMT and FV should be the same, so PV will have an opposite sign. Typically, you would enter PMT and FV as positive…Consider a bond with a face value of $1,000 that sells for an initial price of $700. It will pay no coupons for the first nine years and will then pay 11% coupons for the remaining 29 years.

- Unlike the coupon interest rate, which is fixed, a bond's yield varies from day to day depending on market conditions. To be most useful, it should give us an estimate of the rate of return an investor would earn if that investor purchased the bond today and held it for its remaining life. There are three different yield calculations: Current yield, yield to maturity, and yield to call. A bond's current yield is calculated as the annual interest payment divided by the current price. Unlike the yield to maturity or the yield to call, it does not represent the actual return that investors should expect because it does not account for the capital gain or loss that will be realized if the bond is held until it matures or is called. This yield was popular before calculators and computers came along because it was easy to calculate; however, because it can be misleading, the yield to maturity and yield to call are more relevant. The yield to maturity (YTM) is the rate of return earned on a…If the real rate of interest is 2%, inflation is expected to be 3% during the coming year, and the default risk premium, illiquidity risk premium, and maturity risk premium for the Bonds-R-Us Corporation are all 1% each, what would be the yield (stated rate) on a Bonds-R-Us bond?Let's denote the price of a nonmaturing bond (called a consol) as P. The equation that indicates this price is Pn =-, where I is the annual net income the bond generates and r is the nominal market interest rate. a. Suppose that a bond promises the holder $200 per year forever. The nominal market interest rate is 6 percent. Calculate the bond's current price: S. (Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.)
