Answer:

Chris paid $109.68 for his bond. Since he paid a premium for the bond, the YTM is lower than the coupon rate.

Explanation:

yield of Cheryl's bond is 6% since she purchased it at par and the bond's coupon is 6%

if Chris's bond yields 80% of Cheryl's, it will yield 6% x 0.8 = 4.8%

we can use the approximate yield to maturity formula to find the market price of Chris's bond:

2.4%(semiannual) = {3 + [(100 - MV)/20]} / [(100 + MV)/2]

0.024 x [(100 + MV)/2] = 3 + [(100 - MV)/20]

0.024 x (50 + 0.5MV) = 3 + 5 - 0.05MV

1.2 + 0.012MV = 8 - 0.05MV

0.062MV = 6.8

MV = 6.8 / 0.062 = 109.68

True or False: Computing interest using the sum-of-the-digits method allocates more interest at the beginning of a loan than at
Serhud [2]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

To illustrate how the sum-of-the-digits method allocates interest we can use a lease example:

You are the lessor and you will lease a machine during 4 years. The lease requires 4 equal payments of $100,000 at the beginning of the year. After the lease, the asset's salvage value = $0.

The asset's current value = $300,000, so total interests received = $100,000

Using the sum-of-the-digits method, you will allocate interest as follows:

  • year 1 = 3/6 x $100,000 = $50,000
  • year 2 = 2/6 x $100,000 = $33,333
  • year 3 = 1/6 x $100,000 = $17,000

The largest portion of interests is allocated during the beginning of the loan.
