To find: The conversion ratio, conversion price, and conversion premium.
Introduction:
The price of a share at which the convertible securities like the preferred shares or bonds can be exchanged for a general stock is the conversion price. The number of general shares that are obtained at the time of conversion for every convertible security is the conversion ratio. The amount where the cost of the convertible security is over the value of the current market’s general stock is the conversion premium.
Answer to Problem 19QP
The conversion ratio is 18, the conversion price is $55.56, and the conversion premium is 23.46%.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Company S has a face value of $1,000 for the convertible bond issue that at present sells for $960 in the market. Every bond is exchangeable at any time for eighteen shares of the company’s stock. The coupon rate of the convertible bond is 4.9% and it can be paid semiannually. The same type of the convertible bonds are priced to yield at 7.4%. The maturity of the bond is at 20 years. The company’s stock sells for $45 per share.
The conversion ratio is given at 18. The conversion price is calculated as follows:
Formula to compute the conversion price:
Computation of the conversion price:
Hence, the conversion price is $55.56.
Formula to calculate the conversion premium:
Computation of the conversion premium:
Hence, the conversion premium is 0.2346 or 23.46%.
b)
![Check Mark](/static/check-mark.png)
To find: the straight bond value and the conversion value.
Introduction:
The bond that makes the payment of interest at regular intervals, and at the time of maturity that pays back the original principal amount that is invested is the straight bonds. The securities financial worth that is got by exchanging a convertible security for its underlying asset is a conversion value.
Answer to Problem 19QP
The straight bond value is $747.15 and the conversion value is $810.
Explanation of Solution
Formula to compute the straight bond value:
Note: C is the coupon paid at each period, r is the rate for a period, t is the number of periods, F is the face value of the bond.
Computation of the straight bond value:
Note:
- The given coupon rate is 4.9%, thus, the annual coupon rate is $49 and the semiannual coupon rate is $24.50
- The annual rate for the period is 7.4% and the semiannual rate for the period is 3.7%
- The number of periods is 40 years as the maturity period is 20 years
Hence, the straight bond value is $741.15.
Formula to compute the conversion value:
Computation of the conversion value:
Hence, the conversion value is $810.
c)
![Check Mark](/static/check-mark.png)
To find: The price of the stock to have the straight bond value and the conversion value to be equal (from the part b).
Introduction:
The bond that makes the payment of interest at regular intervals, and at the time of maturity that pays back the original principal amount that is invested is the straight bonds. The securities financial worth that is got by exchanging a convertible security for its underlying asset is a conversion value.
Answer to Problem 19QP
The price of the stock is $41.17.
Explanation of Solution
It is essential to set the straight bond value equivalent to the stock price conversion ratio times and by doing this, the stock price can be found as follows:
Hence, the price of the stock is $41.17.
d)
![Check Mark](/static/check-mark.png)
To find: The option value of the bond.
Introduction:
The value that is placed on the private willingness to make payment for the maintenance and preservation of the public asset is the option value.
Answer to Problem 19QP
The option value of the bond is $218.85.
Explanation of Solution
There are 2 option value that must be taken in considering a convertible bond. The conversion option value is the market value minus the floor value, and the speculative value of an option thus, it is defined as the floor value minus the straight bond value. In the case of the conversion value lesser than the straight bond value, then the speculative option is zero.
Hence, the total option value is $218.85.

- Treasury securities are issued and backed by the U.S. government and, therefore, are considered to be the lowest-risk securities on the market. As an investor looking for protection against inflation, you are considering the purchase of inflation-adjusted bonds known as U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS). With these securities, the face value (which is paid at maturity) and the bond interest rate (which is paid semiannually) is regularly adjusted to account for inflation. However, for this problem only, assume the semi-annual interest payment (called the bond dividend) remains the same. You purchased a 10-year $10,000 TIPS bond with dividend of 4% per year payable semiannually (i.e., $200 every 6 months). Assume there is no inflation adjustment for the first 5 years, but in years 6 through 10, the bond face value increases by $850 each year. You use an expected investment return of 11% per year compounded semiannually. NOTE: This is a multi-part question.
