To identify:
Discount:
Discount refers to a situation where price issued for the bond is below the par value of the bond.
Premium:
Premium refers to a situation where price issued for the bond is above the par value of the bond.
Par value of bonds:
Par value of bond also mentioned as the face value of the bond is the original price printed on the bond certificate. A bond is considered to be issued at par when yield to maturity of a bond is equal to coupon rate of the bond.
a.

Explanation of Solution
Yield to maturity is 9%.
Bond A has 7% annual coupon rate.
Bond B has 9% annual coupon rate.
Bond C has 11% annual coupon rate.
Bond A has an annual coupon rate of 7% which is less than the required return of 9%, it means that the bond is being traded at below the par value or at discount.
Bond B has an annual coupon rate of 9% which is equal to the required return of 9%, it means that the bond is being traded at par value.
Bond C has an annual coupon rate of 11% which is more than the required return of 9%, it means that the bond is being traded at above the par value or at a premium.

To identify: Decision to choose between yield to maturity or yield to call.
3.

Answer to Problem 19SP
Mr. C will earn Yield to call in the given case.
Explanation of Solution
Since the bonds are trading at a premium, it indicates that interest rates have fallen.
In case interest rates remain to be constant at present level, Mr. C should anticipate the bond to be called.
As a result, he will earn Yield to call.
Hence, Mr. C will earn Yield to call in the given case.
f.
To identify: Difference between price risk and reinvestment risk. Bonds which have highest reinvestment risk.
f.

Explanation of Solution
Price risk
Price risk is the possibility of the fall in the price of bonds due to rising in the interest rates.
Price risk is higher on bonds having longer maturity period as it gives sufficient time to bondholder to replace the bond.
Reinvestment risk
Reinvestment risk is the possibility of fall in the interest rates which will subsequently result in fall in income from the bond portfolio.
Reinvestment risk is higher on short-term bonds as less high old coupon bonds will be replaced with a new low-coupon bond.
Bonds have been ranked in order from the most interest rate risk to the least interest rate risk:
18 year bond with a 9% annual coupon
A 10-year bond with a zero coupon
A 10-year bond with a 9% annual coupon
A 5-year bond with a zero coupon
A 5-year bond with a 9% annual coupon
Hence, bonds have been ranked above from the most interest rate risk to the least interest rate risk.

The change in the distribution system comes at a time when DEW’s profits are declining. The declining profits might not be the sole reason for the change, but it appears to be the primary impetus for the decision. It also appears that the new policy requiring DEW’s distributors to increase inventory levels before the end of the fiscal year will artificially inflate DEW’s sales for the current year. However, DEW’s new policy does not require the distributors to pay for any increased inventory until next year (six months), and any unsold inventory can be returned after nine months. So, if the demand for DEW’s products actually is decreasing, the impact will appear on next year’s financial statements. If the financial manager actually intends to artificially inflate DEW’s profits this year, she must realize that such actions eventually will “catch up” with her.
