- A newly issued bond with 1 year to maturity has a price of $1,000, which equals its face value. The coupon rate is 15% and the probability of default in 1 year is 35%. The bond’s payoff in default will be 65% of its face value. a. Calculate the bond’s expected return. b. Use a data table to show the expected return as a function of the recovery percentage and the price of the bond. Please show how you got part B using all functions.arrow_forwardWhat is the yield to maturity on a bond that has a price of $1,700 and a coupon rate of 12% annually for 6 years at the end of which it repays the principal of $1000? Is the bond selling at premium, at par, or at discount? How can you tell? (Using financial calculator)arrow_forwardA bond has 10 years until maturity, a coupon rate of 8.3%, and sells for $1,170. Interest is paid annually. ( Assume a face value of $1,000.) If the bond has a yield to maturity of 9.7% 1 year from now, what will its price be at that time? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to nearest whole number. What will be the rate of return on the bond? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places. Negative amount should be indicated by a minus sign. If the inflation rate during the year is 3%, what is the real rate of return on the bond? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places.
