A 30-year bond with a face value of $1000 has a coupon rate of 5.5%, with semiannual payments.
- a. What is the coupon payment for this bond?
- b. Draw the cash flows for the bond on a timeline.
a.
To determine: The coupon payment on a bond.
Introduction:
Yield to maturity (YTM) is the rate of return projected for a security or a bond, which is apprehended until its maturity period. It is also considered as the internal rate of return (IRR) for a security or bond and it likens the current estimation of bond’s future cash flow to its present market cost. Coupon rate is expressed as an interest rate on a fixed income security like a bond. It is also called as the interest rate that the bondholders receive from their investment. It depends on the yield as of the day when the bond is issued.

- Consider a bond with one year remaining to maturity, a $1,000 face value, an 8 percent coupon rate (paid semi-annually), and an interest rate (either required rate of return or yield to maturity) of 20 percent. What is the duration of the bond?arrow_forwardConsider a bond with semiannual interest payments that has a Settlement Date of 8/15/2020, a Maturity Date of 2/15/2031, a Coupon Rate of 5.00%, a Market Price of $975, a Face Value of $1,000, and a Required Return of 5.35%. What is the Macaulay Duration using the Duration function on these bonds expressed as a decimal calculated to two decimal places if you purchase them at the current market price? For example, if your answer is 12.345 then enter as 12.35 in the answerarrow_forwardA discount bond selling for $7,000 with a face value of $10,000 in one year has a yield to maturity of ___________.

- suppose a 30 year, pay coupon of 4% is priced to yield 5%. par = 1000. the bond pays its coupon annually. calculate the instrinsic value of the bond. decide whether the bond is at premium or discount? please show the calculation using excelarrow_forwardConsider a bond with a face value of $2,000 that pays a coupon of $150 for 10 years. Suppose the bond is purchased at $500, and can be resold next year for $400. What is the rate of return of the bond? What is the yield to maturity of the bond?arrow_forwardConsider two bonds. The first is a 6% coupon bond with six years to maturity, and a yield to maturity of 4.5% annual rate, compounded semi-annually. The second bond is a 2% coupon bond with six years to maturity and a yield to maturity of 5.0%, annual rate, compounded semi-annually. a. Draw a cash flow diagram for each bond. b. Calculate the current price per $100 of face value for each bond.arrow_forward
- A 10-year bond with a face value of $1,000 has a coupon rate of 9.0%, with semiannual payments. a. What is the coupon payment for this bond? b. Enter the cash flows for the bond on a timeline. a. What is the coupon payment for this bond? The coupon payment for this bond is $ every six months. (Round to the nearest cent.)arrow_forwardSuppose that a bond with an 8% coupon rate and semiannual coupons has a face value of $1,000, 10 years to maturity. The required rate (Yield to Maturity, YTM) is 5%. Draw a timeline to identify the amount and timing of cash flows obtained with the bond and calculate the bond value. Redo part (a) if YTM is 10%. Next, use the results of parts (a) and (b) to show the relationship among YTM, coupon rate and bond value.arrow_forwardA 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_forward
