Introduction : In economic survey the prices are decreased, thus value of callable bond is decreased. In economic recession the prices raised and value of callable bond is increased.
B
Summary Introduction
To calculate: The change in the price for bond ‘B’.
Introduction: The price change of bond ‘B’ is a product of the time period to the yield change of the bond. Here the change in YTM is 75 basis points.
C.
Summary Introduction
To explain: Short comes to analyze the bond ‘A’.
Introduction: Callable bonds also known as redeemable bonds which allows the investor to redeem its bond before its maturity date. When market goes down investor can refinance the debt.

Based on the preceding information, which of the following statements are true? Check all that apply.
O Johnson Incorporated's bonds have the highest expected total return.
O The bonds have the same expected total return.
O The expected capital gains yield for Smith, LLC's bonds is negative.

can you may this calculations for each of my bonds?. For each of your bonds, calculate expected defavvult percent loss as = default probability* (1 - recovery rate ). You will need to use the default rates and recovery rates that match each bond's rating. 4. Calculate the overall expected loss to your portfolio as the weighted average of the expected default percent loss
Consider two types of bonds: A 10 year to maturity corporate bond and a 10 year to maturity Treasury bond. We know that Corporate Bonds have default risk.
Discuss the impact on the markets for these two type of bonds & on the risk premium when there is a FALL in the
risk of corporate default?
Provide a DISCUSSION of the impact and ILLUSTRATE the impact graphically using two diagrams, one for corporate bonds
and one for Treasuries. The diagrams should show the impact on each yield and the impact on the risk premium [label your diagram clearly to illustrate the old premium vs. the
new premium].
hint: draw your diagrams side by side, so you can show the risk premiums as done in lecture.

- A bond is a debt investment in which an investor loans money to an entity (typically corporate or governmental) which borrows the funds for a defined period of time at a variable or fixed interest rate. Suppose the bond issued by Logan Inc. has 5-year maturity with coupon of 12%. 4.1. If the yield to maturity is 10%, compute the bond value. Compute the modified duration of this bond. Use the modified duration to estimate the change in price if the interest rate decreases by 0.50%. 4.2. 4.3.arrow_forwardCompute for the following given statement and justify your answer. 1. Consider two bonds. Bond A has a face value of ₱100,000 and a stated rate of 12%. Bond B has a facevalue of ₱100,000 and a stated rate of 8%. Both bonds have the same maturity. Which bond has thegreatest interest rate risk?arrow_forwardA question asks to obtain weekly interest rate data from different bond types and to plot them.

- Consider an A-rated bond and a B-rated bond. Assume that the one-year probabilities of default for the A- and B-rated bonds are 1% and 3%, respectively, and that default correlation between the two bonds is 20%. What is the joint probability of default of the two bonds?arrow_forwardPlease see attached. Definitions: Coupon is the regular interest payment of a bond. Coupon rate is the interest rate for the bond coupons, expressed in annual percentage terms. Par value is the principal amount to be repaid at the maturity of the bond. Yield to maturity (YTM) is the return the bond holder receives on the bond if held to maturity. Maturity date is the expiration date of the bond on which the final interest payment is made as well as the principal repayment.arrow_forwardThe following table summarizes the prices of various default-free zero-coupon bonds (expressed as a percentage of the face value): a.
