Yield to maturity: In short it is represented as YTM. YTM is supposed to be the total return which is expected from a bond when the bond is held till the maturity date.
c.
To calculate: The market expectations of selling price if the expectation theory yield curve is correct, on which the bond will be sold next year.
Introduction:
Expectations theory: Expectation theory deals with prediction of the value of short-term interest rates in future will the help of long-term interest rates prevailing on current date.
d.
To calculate: The market expectations of selling price of the bond during next year using liquidity preference theory and assuming liquidity premium 1%.

- Suppose a 10-year, 10% semiannual coupon bond with a par value of 1,000 is currently selling for 1,135.90, producing a nominal yield to maturity of 8%. However, the bond can be called after 5 years for a price of 1,050. (1) What is the bonds nominal yield to call (YTC)? (2) If you bought this bond, do you think you would be more likely to earn the YTM or the YTC? Why?arrow_forwardThe yield on a 1-year zero-coupon bonds is currently 7%; the YTM on 2 -year zeros is 8%. The treasury plans to issue a 2 -year maturity coupon bond, paying coupons once a year with a coupon rate of 9%. The face value of the bond is $100. (BKM 15.11) a) At what price will the bond sell? 15 p b) If the expectations theory of the yield curve is correct, what is the market expectation of the price that the bond will sell for next year? c) Recalculate your answer to b) if you believe in the liquidity preference theory and you believe the liquidity premium is 1%.arrow_forwardThe 1-year spot rate is 6%, the 2-year spot rate is 7%. The Treasury plans to issue 2-year maturity fixed coupon bonds with annual coupon payments, the coupon rate is 8% and face value of the bond is $100. Follow annual compounding. a. What price will the bond sell (using spot rates to calculate)? b. What will the yield to maturity on the bond be? c. If the expectations theory is correct, what will be the market’s expectation of the price the bond will sell one year from today?arrow_forward
