Decent Essays
Register to read the introduction… a) what is the YTM at a current market price of $829 b) would you pay $829 for one of these bonds if you thought the appropriate rate of interest was 12% 2.Yield to Call (YTC) If you purchased a bond that was callable and the company called it, you would not have the option of holding the bond until it matured. Therefore, the YTM would not be earned. ( )= (1 + ) + (1 + )

N = the number of years until the company can call the bond Call price = the price the company must pay in order to call the bond (it is often set equal to the par value plus 1 year's interest rd = YTC The YTC is the rate of return investors will receive if their bonds are called. If the issuer has the right to call the bonds and if interest rate fall, then it would be logical for the issuer to call the bonds and replace them with new bonds that carry a lower coupon. The YTC is find similarly to the YTM. The same formula is used, but years to maturity are replaced with years to call, and the maturity value is replaced with the call price. Example: (Tool Kit 4 Chapter) Suppose you purchase a 15-year, 10% annual coupon, $ 1.000 par value bond with a call provision after 10 years at a call price of $ 1.100. One year later, interest rates have fallen from 10% to 5% causing the value of the bond to rise to $ 1.494,93. What is the bond's YTC? Call price =$ 1,100 rk=10%  INT= $ 100 N=10-1=9 (years to call) VB=$ 1,494.93 rd/YTC=? VB  Call price  YTC  rk So, YTC has to be less than a coupon rate, meaning less than 10%. rd 1=5% P1= 100 ∙ ( %, ) + 1,100 ∙ ( %, ) = 100 ∙ 7,10782 + 1,100 ∙ 0,64461 = 1,419. 853 1.419,853  1,494.93  P1 P  5% is too high rate rd 2=4% P2= 100

The letter was intended for a man named “Bibulus,” but it can also be assumed that after the letter was published the audience could also be the women in the society. In addition, the letter could have also been intended to whoever was against the idea that women should be knowledgeable. This letter was written in order to defend Cereta from being accused by “Bibulus” for wanting to be praised and to defend the idea women shouldn’t be scared to say what they know and to say their reasonings.…

    If rates dropped to 3%, our zero-coupon bond - with its yield of 5.26% - would suddenly look very attractive. More people would buy the bond, which would push the price up until the bond's yield matched the prevailing 3% rate. In this instance, the price of the bond would increase to approximately $970. Given this increase in price, you can see why bond-holders (the investors selling their bonds) benefit from a decrease in prevailing interest rates. ("Why do interest rates tend to have an inverse relationship with bond prices?…
