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%

For an analysis of the salaries of your company, you plot the salaries of all employees against the number of years they have w

Arisa [49]

Answer:

1. That values that you must plot are:

(1, 4.08))

(20, 5.08)

(40, 6.18)

2. Yes, the plot of those three points is straight enough.

Explanation:

A. What are the values you will plot?

The x-ccordinate of your plot is still the number of years the exmployees have worked for the company.

The y-coordinate of your plot is the the base-10 logarithm of the salary.

Therefore:

1) A part-time shipping clerk: 1 year, $12,000

⇒ $(1,log_{10}12,000)=(1,4.08)$

2) A manager: 20 years, $120,000

⇒ $(20,log_{10}120,000)=(20,5.08)$

3) The CEO: 40 years ago, $1,500,000

⇒ $(40,log_{10}1,500,000)=(40,6.18)$

Summarizing, the points to plot are:

(1, 4.08)

(20, 5.08)

(40, 6.18)

B. Will the plot of these three points be straight enough?

To find whether the plot is straight enoguh, you may either plot them, make a regression, or, since they are only three points, you can whether the change of rate of the points is constant.

Change of rate of the first two points, r:

r = rise/run = Δy / Δx = (5.08 - 4.08) / (20 - 1) =1.00/19 ≈ 0.05

Change of rate of the second and the third points, r:

r = rise/run = Δy / Δx = (6.18 - 5.08) / (20 - 1) = 0.05

Since both rate of changes are equal (or reasonably equal) the plot is straight enough.
