Absolute Advantage in business terms is the fact that a certain company has everything in their favor, from great advertising team, a large and ready consumer group, the right kind of products to push out, as well as high quality and fairly low price. Compared to their competitors, they may also give better customer service, and are willing to talk about any product problems, and find solutions that satisfy both sides, which would all draw more consumers to them then their competitors, creating essentially a monopoly.

An annual has 15 years to maturity. It has a coupon rate of 5%, a YTM of 8%. Fill in the cells highlighted in yellow, and aswer

grin007 [14]

Answer:

Market value at 8% YTM $ 743.2156

at 10% YTM $ 619.6960

Explanation:

Assuming the face value is 1,000 as common outstanding American company's bonds:

Market value under the current scenario:

Present value of the coupon payment:

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

Coupon: $1,000 x 5% = 50

time 15 years

rate 0.08

$50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.08)^{-15} }{0.08} = PV\\$

PV $427.9739

Present Value of the Maturity

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 1,000.00

time 15.00

rate 0.08

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.08)^{15} } = PV$

PV 315.24

PV c $427.9739

PV m $315.2417

Total $743.2156

If the interest rate in the market increaseby 2% then investor will only trade the bonds to get a yield 2% higher that is 10% so we recalculate the new price:

$C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\$

C 50.000

time 15

rate 0.1

$50 \times \frac{1-(1+0.1)^{-15} }{0.1} = PV\\$

PV $380.3040

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity 1,000.00

time 15.00

rate 0.1

$\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.1)^{15} } = PV$

PV 239.39

PV c $380.3040

PV m $239.3920

Total $619.6960
