Chapter 4, Problem 22P
Yield to Maturity and Yield to Call
Arnot International’s bonds have a current market price of $1,200. The bonds have an 11% annual coupon payment, a $1,000 face value, and 10 years left until maturity. The bonds may be called in 5 years at 109% of face value (call price = $1,090).
- a. What is the yield to maturity?
- b. What is the yield to call if they are called in 5 years?
- c. Which yield might investors expect to earn on these bonds, and why?
- d. The bond’s indenture indicates that the call provision gives the firm the right to call them at the end of each year beginning in Year 5. In Year 5, they may be called at 109% of face value, but in each of the next 4 years the call percentage will decline by 1 percentage point. Thus, in Year 6 they may be called at 108% of face value, in Year 7 they may be called at 107% of face value, and so on. If the yield curve is horizontal and interest rates remain at their current level, when is the latest that investors might expect the firm to call the bonds?

Construct the term structure of interest rates for these three periods.
b. Your company plans to issue three-year maturity coupon bonds. Based on its
excellent credit rating, your company pays a low constant 3% risk premium over
the relevant term-structure rates. You plan to issue bonds priced at par (i.e. price =
face value). At what level should you plan to set the coupon on your bond to
justify this price?
c. Now assume that your company wishes to issue 3-year zero coupon bonds. At
what price will these bonds sell?
A bond with a face value of $1,000 has 10 years until maturity, has a coupon rate of 5.2%, and sells for $1,105.

b. What is the yield to maturity if interest is paid once a year? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 4 decimal places.)
c. What is the yield to maturity if interest is paid semiannually? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 4 decimal places.)
