Summary Introduction

(a)

To Discuss:

The likely impact on the offering yield of adding a call feature to a proposed bond issue

Introduction:

A bond is a security that creates an obligation on the issuer to make specified payments to the holder for a given period of time. The face value of the bond is the amount the holder will receive on maturity along with the coupon rate which is also known as the interest rate of the bond.

Yield to maturity is defined as the discount rate that makes the present payments from the bond equal to its price. In simple terms, it is the average rate of return a holder can expect from that bond.

Callable bonds are those bonds which are repurchased by the issuer at a specified call price before the maturity of the bond.
