What is the current yield on the bond assuming that the required return on the bond is 10 percent? a % b. 8.46% c. 7.00% d. 8.5% e. 8.37% Answer: b Numerical solution: V B = $70((1-1/ )/0.10) + $1,000(1/ ) = $70(5.7590) + $1,000(0.441) = $ $44.10 = $87.3. Financial calculator solution: N = 9, I = 10, PMT = 70, FV = 1,000, and solve for PV =? = - $87.3. Current yield = $70/$87.3 = 8.46%. YIELD TO MATURITY 11.

5 11. c r 8 1 1/(1 ).06 $1,000 + $1,000 $1,000 = + ; This can not be solved r r 8 (1 + ) directly, so it s easiest to just use the calculator method to get an answer. You can then use the calculator answer as the rate in the formula just to verify that your answer is correct. Enter 8 / -1,000 60/ 1,000 N I/Y PV PMT FV Solve for 6 Answer is 6.00 percent Bond value - semiannual payment 1. Assume that you wish to purchase a 0-year bond that has a maturity value of $1,000 and makes semiannual interest payments of $40. If you require a 10 percent nominal yield to maturity on this investment, what is the maximum price you should be willing to pay for the bond? a. $619 b. $674 c. $761 d. $88 e. $90 Bond value - semiannual payment Answer: d Time Line: 0 5% month.. Periods PV =? FV = 1,000 Numerical solution: V B = $40((1-1/ )/0.05) + $1,000(1/ ) = $40( ) + $1,000(0.140) = $88.36 $88. Financial calculator solution: Inputs: N = 40; I = 5; PMT = 40; FV = 1,000. Output: PV = -$88.41; V B $88. Bond coupon rate 13. The current price of a 10-year, $1,000 par value bond is $1, Interest on this bond is paid every six months, and the nominal annual yield is 14 percent. Given these facts, what is the annual coupon rate on this bond?

6 a. 10% b. 1% c. 14% d. 17% e. 1% Bond coupon rate Answer: d Time Line: 0 rd/ = 7% month.... Periods PMT =? PMT PMT V B = 1, FV = 1,000 Numerical solution: $1, = PMT(PVIFA 7%,0 ) + $1,000(PVIF 7%,0 ) = PMT((1-1/ )/0.07) + $1,000(1/ ) = PMT( ) + $1,000(0.584) PMT = $900.51/ = $85. Annual coupon rate = ()($85)/$1,000 = 17%. Financial calculator solution: Inputs: N = 0; I = 7; PV = -1,158.91; FV = 1,000. Output: PMT = $85.00 (semiannual PMT). Annual coupon rate = $85()/$1,000 = 17.0%. TIME TO MATURITY OF COUPON BOND 14. The Lo Sun Corporation offers a 6 percent bond with a current market price of $ The yield to maturity is 7.34 percent. The face value is $1,000. Interest is paid semiannually. How many years is it until this bond matures? a. 16 years b. 18 years c. 4 years d. 30 years e. 36 years.0734 t 1 1/(1 ).06 $1,000 + $1, $ = ; It s easiest way.0734 t (1 + ) to solve this problem is using a financial calculator. You can then use the calculator answer as the time period in the formula just to verify that your answer is correct. Enter 7.34/ / 1,000 N I/Y PV PMT FV Solve for 3 The number of six-month periods is 3. The number of years is 16.

A bond matures in 1 years, and pays an 8 percent annual coupon. The bond has a face value of $1,000, and currently sells for $985. What is the bond s current yield and yield to maturity? a. Current yield = 8.00%; yield to maturity = 7.9%. b. Current yield = 8.1%; yield to maturity = 8.0%. c. Current yield = 8.0%; yield to maturity = 8.37%. d. Current yield = 8.1%; yield to maturity = 8.37%. e. Current yield = 8.1%; yield to maturity = 7.9%. Current yield and yield to maturity Answer: b N = 1 PV = -985 PMT = 80 FV = 1,000 Solve for I/YR (YTM) = 8.0%. Current yield is calculated as: $80/$985 = 8.1%.
