Start with the partial model in the file Ch20 P08 Build a Model.xlsx on the textbook’s Web site. Maggie’s Magazines (MM) has straight nonconvertible bonds that currently yield 9%. MM’s stock sells for $22 per share, has an expected constant growth rate of 6%, and has a dividend yield of 4%. MM plans on issuing convertible bonds that will have a $1,000 par value, a coupon rate of 8%, a 20-year maturity, and a conversion ratio of 32 (i.e., each bond could be convertible into 32 shares of stock). Coupon payments will be made annually. The bonds will be noncallable for 5 years, after which they will be callable at a price of $1,090; this call price would decline by $6 per year in Year 6 and each year thereafter. For simplicity, assume that the bonds may be called or converted only at the end of a year, immediately after the coupon and dividend payments. Management will call the bonds when their conversion value exceeds 25% of their par value (not their call price).
- a. For each year, calculate (1) the anticipated stock price, (2) the anticipated conversion value, (3) the anticipated straight-
bond price , and (4) the cash flow to the investor assuming conversion occurs. At what year do you expect the bonds will be forced into conversion with a call? What is the bond’s value in conversion when it is converted at this time? What is the cash flow to the bondholder when it is converted at this time? (Hint: The cash flow includes the conversion value and the coupon payment, because the conversion occurs immediately after the coupon is paid.) - b. What is the expected
rate of return (i.e., the before-tax component cost) on the proposed convertible issue? - c. Assume that the convertible bondholders require a 9% rate of return. If the coupon rate remains unchanged, then what conversion ratio will give a bond price of $1,000?

- Create an essay using the following information: Assume you are evaluating whether to purchase the following $1,000 face value bonds: Co. X bond with a 6% coupon rate that matures in 9 years. Co. Y bond with an 11% coupon rate that matures in 7 years. Also, you may wish to review https://t.ly/wJqNM and https://t.ly/2EX2k about corporate junk (junk bonds). Given the scenario and information about junk bonds, address the following: Value these bonds assuming a market rate on similar risk bonds is 7% and interest is paid annually. Value these bonds assuming a market rate on similar risk bonds is 7% and interest is paid semi-annually. Value these bonds assuming a market rate on similar risk bonds is 12% and interest is paid annually. Assuming both bonds were issued at the same time, why would the Co. Y bond pay a higher coupon rate?arrow_forwardAlert dont submit AI generated answer.arrow_forwardRose Gardens is looking into investing opportunities. The following are potential opportunities: Zipliners R Us is a fairly new business with a market price of $30 and Rose Gardens anticipates that their dividends will grow at a rate of 3% for the foreseeable future. The next dividend is expected to be $1.50. RBC Royal Bank is issuing bonds at a selling price of $950. The par value of the bond is $1,000 and RBC is offering a coupon rate of 6%. Interest is expected to be paid annually. These bonds will mature in 5 years. Massy Ltd on the other hand is a matured company so their dividend has not changed in years. Their last dividends paid was $2.00. Massy Ltd. stock is currently being sold at $30. Microsoft Inc.is currently being sold at $235.75 per share. Rose Gardens found out that last year they paid dividends of $1.44 and they anticipate that the dividends would grow at a rate of 8% for years 1 & 2, then it would increase to 10% in years 3 & 4 and finally level off…arrow_forward
