At one point, certain U.S. Treasury bonds were callable. Consider the prices in the following three Treasury issues as of May 15

, 2017: 05/15/2020 6.50 108.71875 108.78125 − .31250 3.400 05/15/2020 7.55 109.25000 109.31250 − .09375 4.210 05/15/2020 8.05 114.31250 114.50000 − .46875 2.960 The bond in the middle is callable in February 2018. What is the implied value of the call feature? Assume a par value of $1,000. (Hint: Is there a way to combine the two noncallable issues to create an issue that has the same coupon as the callable bond?) (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Answer:

Yield to Call: 12.68%

Explanation:

We will calculate the YTC

To do so we will list on exce lthe cash flow for the bond life:

0 -1000.0 (purchased at face value)

1 120.00 (coupon payment: 1,000 x 12%)

2 120.00

3 120.00

4      120.00

5 120.00

6 120.00

7 1190.00 (1,70 call price + 120 coupon payment)

below the cash flow we enter the IRR function and select the cash flow

this will give us the YTC: 0.126795

There is another way to calcualte the YTC but is done by approximation and is not an exact answer:

YTM = \frac{C + \frac{P-F}{n }}{\frac{F+P}{2}}

Coupon value = 120

Face value = 1,000

P = call = 1,070

n= 7 years

Result: 12.5603865%

as notice this differs with the excel answer as it is an aproximation nto an exact answer.

Answer:

Safety

Explanation:

Lemon Laws were made to protect customers from defective vehicles with safety problems, or malfunction defects that affect its safety, use or value. Depending on the number of issues detected, the car reveals itself to be a "lemon". Generally, most states provide 3 attempts to solve the problem within a given period. In this case, 30 days.

Since the problem found was on the drivetrain and the axles, then it is a matter of safety after all.
