You hold two bonds. You own a $1,000 face value bond from Company B that has 5.2% coupons paid once per year, and seven years to maturity. The other is a $1,000 face value bond from A Corporation that has 9.2% coupons paid once per year, and seven years to maturity. The market (YTM) for both bonds is 7.2%. a. What is the current yield for Bond A? For Bond B? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 12.34.) b. If the YTM remains unchanged, what is the expected capital gains yield over the next year for Bond A? For Bond B? (Hint: you will need to solve the price of each bond next year to find the capital gains yield. (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) a. Current yield b. Capital gains yield Bond A % % Bond B % %

Consider a bond with a principal of $1,000 that pays a coupon of $100 per year. If the bond matures in one year and the current interest rate is i = 3%, what is the price (present value) of the bond? Round to the nearest cent. Answer:
You're thinking of buying three separate bonds. Each bond has a face value of $1,000 and will maturity after ten years. Since both of the bonds have the same amount of risk, their yield to maturity is the same. Bond A pays an annual coupon of 8%, Bond B pays a 10% annual coupon, and Bond C pays a 12% annual coupon. Bond B is sold at par value. Which of the above assertions is more accurate if interest rates are supposed to stay at their present pace for the next ten years?a. Bond A is sold at a discount (less than par) and is projected to rise in value over the next year.b. During the next year, Bond A's price is expected to fall, Bond B's price is expected to remain unchanged, and Bond C's price is expected to rise.c. Since all of the bonds have the same yield to maturity, they should all have the same amount, and because interest rates are unlikely to adjust, their values should all stay the same once the bonds mature.d. Bond C is sold at a premium (it is worth more than par) and is…
