Answer: Gwen should report a $3,000 long-term capital gain in her income tax return.
In this question the price paid by Gwen’s mother for the shares is irrelevant because of her death.
The stock’s fair market value ($20) when Gwen inherited the shares (21st October 2015) is Gwen stepped up value.
Gwen’s gain from selling the shares is:
Gwen inherited the shares on (21st October 2015) and held the shares until (3rd july 2017), so she held the shares for more than one year after inheriting it. So, she will report a long-term capital gain on her income tax return.
Answer:
Sam change: -5.13%
Dave change -18.01%
Explanation:
If interest rate increase by 2%
then the YTM of the bond will be 9.3%
We need eto calcualte the present value of the coupon and maturity of the bond at this new rate:
<em><u>For the coupon payment we use the formula for ordinary annuity</u></em>
Coupon payment: 1,000 x 7.3% / 2 payment per year: 36.50
time 6 (3 years x 2 payment per year)
YTM seiannual: 0.0465 (9.3% annual /2 = 4.65% semiannual)
PV $187.3546
<u><em>For the maturity we calculate usign the lump sum formula:</em></u>
Maturity: $ 1,000.00
time: 6 payment
rate: 0.0465
PV 761.32
Now, we add both together:
PV coupon $187.3546 + PV maturity $761.3154 = $948.6700
now we calcualte the change in percentage:
948.67/1,000 - 1 = -0.051330026 = -5.13
For Dave we do the same:
C 36.50
time 40
rate 0.0465
PV $657.5166
Maturity 1,000.00
time 40.00
rate 0.0465
PV 162.34
PV c $657.5166
PV m $162.3419
Total $819.8585
Change:
819.86 / 1,000 - 1 = -0.180141521 = -18.01%
Answer:
a.
Bond Price = $563,333.90007 rounded off to $563,333.90
b.
Bond Price = $502500
c.
Bond Price = $437232.16025 rounded off to $437232.16
Explanation:
To calculate the quote/price of the bond today, which is the present value of the bond, we will use the formula for the price of the bond. As the bond is a semi annual bond, we will use the semi annual coupon payment, semi annual number of periods and semi annual YTM. The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.
a. Case A: Market interest rate (annual): 4 percent
Coupon Payment (C) = 502500 * 0.06 * 6/12 = $15075
Total periods remaining (n) = 7 * 2 = 14
r or YTM = 4% * 6/12 = 0.02 or 2%
Bond Price = 15075 * [( 1 - (1+0.02)^-14) / 0.02] + 502500 / (1+0.02)^14
Bond Price = $563,333.90007 rounded off to $563,333.90
b. Case B: Market interest rate (annual): 6 percent
Coupon Payment (C) = 502500 * 0.06 * 6/12 = $15075
Total periods remaining (n) = 7 * 2 = 14
r or YTM = 6% * 6/12 = 0.03 or 3%
Bond Price = 15075 * [( 1 - (1+0.03)^-14) / 0.03] + 502500 / (1+0.03)^14
Bond Price = $502500
c. Case C: Market interest rate (annual): 8.5 percent.
Coupon Payment (C) = 502500 * 0.06 * 6/12 = $15075
Total periods remaining (n) = 7 * 2 = 14
r or YTM = 8.5% * 6/12 = 0.0425 or 4.25%
Bond Price = 15075 * [( 1 - (1+0.0425)^-14) / 0.0425] + 502500/(1+0.0425)^14
Bond Price = $437232.16025 rounded off to $437232.16
