Anastaziya [24]

The preferred stock effect is not a notion that can be used to explain abnormally high excess stock returns.

<h3>What is the preferred stock?</h3>

The term "stock" refers to a company's ownership or equity. Common stock and preferred stock are the two forms of equity. Preferred investors are entitled to more dividends or asset distributions than common stockholders. The specifics of each preferred stock vary depending on the issuance.

When it comes to dividends, preferred stockholders have a preference over ordinary stockholders, which typically yield more than common shares and might be paid monthly or quarterly. These dividends can be fixed or determined by reference to a benchmark interest rate, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate.

Workman Software has 8.8 percent coupon bonds on the market with 19 years to maturity. The bonds make semiannual payments and cu
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

current yield 8.2089552%

YTM = 8.05%

effective annual yield = 4.92%

Explanation:

(A)

current yield = C/P

coupon payment / market price

8.8/107.2 = 0.082089552 = 8.2089552%

(B)

P = \frac{C}{2} \times\frac{1-(1+YTM/2)^{-2t} }{YTM/2} + \frac{CP}{(1+YTM/2)^{2t}}

First par being the present value of the coupon payment and second the redeem of the face value at the end of the bond.

market price 107.2

face value 100

time = 19

rate 8.8%

C = annual coupon payment 100 x 8.8% = 8.8

You solve this using a financial calculation and get the semiannual rate

YTM/2 = 0.040268160

then multiply by 2 to get the annual YTM

0.040268160  x 2 =

YTM = 0.08053632 = 8.05%

(C)

Effective Annual Yield

(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY

where:

Holding period return:

\frac{Net \: Return}{Investment} = HPR

In this case:

coupon payment + redem - investment = net return

8.8 * 19 + 100 - 107.2 = 160

160/107.2 = 1.492537313

Then

(1+HPR)^{365/time} -1 = EAY

(1+1.142537313)^{\frac{365}{19\times365}} -1 = EAY

EAY = 0.049242509 = 4.9242509%
