) Consider buying a 1000 pbr bond at the market price of 800 pbr. The bond paysdividends semiannually at a rate of 8% per year over 10 years (i.e. The bond matures in 10 years).(a) Calculate the coupon rate?(b) Calculate the dividend amounts /Coupon interest payments.(c) Draw the cash flow diagram for the bond investment.(d) Calculate the effective annual yield.
An analyst evaluating securities has obtained the following information. The real rate of interest is 2.4% and is expected to remain constant for the next 5 years. Inflation is expected to be 2.3% next year, 3.3% the following year, 4.3% the third year, and 5.3% every year thereafter. The maturity risk premium is estimated to be 0.1 × (t – 1)%, where t = number of years to maturity. The liquidity premium on relevant 5-year securities is 0.5% and the default risk premium on relevant 5-year securities is 1%.
