Question
Chapter 6, Problem 18P
Summary Introduction
To determine: The price of the five year zero-coupon bond.
Introduction: A bond is a debt instrument with which the shareholder credits the cash to an entity which can be a government or an organization that scrounges finance for a distinct timeframe at a predefined interest rate. Coupon rate is expressed as an interest rate on a fixed income security similar to a bond. It is also known as the interest rate that the bondholders get from their investment. It depends on the yield depending on the day the bond is issued.

D3)
The value of a derivative that pays off $100 after one year if a company has defaulted during the year is $5. The value of a derivative that pays off $100 after one year if a company has not defaulted is $97.
(a) What is the risk-free rate?
(b) What is the risk-neutral probability of default?
Required:
The market price of a security is $56. Its expected rate of return is 12%. The risk-free rate is 5%, and the market risk premium is 9%.
What will the market price of the security be if its beta doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged)? Assume the stock is
expected to pay a constant dividend in perpetuity. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Suppose that, in each period, the cost of a security either goes up by a factor of 2 or goes down by a factor of 1/2 (i.e.,u=
2, d=1/2). If the initial price of the security is 100, determine the no-arbitrage cost of a call option to purchasse the
security at the end of two periods for a price of 150.
My main question is what should the no-arbitrage price of the call be? Can I have complete detail and formula please.

- The market price of a security is $50. Its expected rate of return is 10%. The risk-free rate is 5%, and the market risk premium is 8%. What will the market price of the security be if its beta doubles (and all other variables remain unchanged)? Assume the stock is expected to pay a constant dividend in perpetuity. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)arrow_forwardI asked this question yesterday: Suppose that, in each period, the cost of a security either goes up by a factor of 2 or goes down by a factor of 1/2 (i.e. u=2, d=1/2). If the initial price of the security is 100, determine the no-arbitrage cost of a call option to purchase the security at the end of two periods for a price of 150. In the answer I got today the first step said: "We assume that the probability of moving up and moving down be 50% each, which means equal chances for both the movements. " I had learned that the risk neutral probability for the stock price to go up is: p=(1+r-d)/(u-d). In this particular problem, we'd have p=(1+0-.5)/(2-.5)=1/3. And so the probability going down would be 1-p or 2/3. Thus, my question is why weren't these probabilities used in the solution previously sent? And if they should be, what would be the new solution to the problem? Thank you for your help. I'm new to learning all of this and some of it is hard for me to understand.arrow_forwardQuestion 1) Federico wants to calculate the expected rate of return for security for his work as a freelance investment banker.
