A firm's bonds have a maturity of 14 years with a $1,000 face value, have an 8% semiannual coupon, are callable in 7 years at $1
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

YTM = 6.51%

YTC = 6.40%

Explanation:

We need to solve using excel goal seek or bond formulas to generate the yield (interest rate) which matches the future couponb and maturity payment with the current selling price of the bond:

Present value of the coupon

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

C 40.000 (1,000 x 8% / 2 payment per year)

time 28 (14 years x 2 payment per year)

rate 0.032529972 (generate using goal seek tool)

40 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0325299719911398)^{-28} }{0.0325299719911398} = PV\\

PV $727.8688

Pv of the maturity (lump sum)

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

Maturity   1,000.00

time   28.00

rate  0.032529972

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.0325299719911398)^{28} } = PV  

PV   408.06

PV c $727.8688

PV m  $408.0612

Total $1,135.9300

As this is a semiannual rate we multiply it by 2

0.032529972 x 2 = 0.065059944 = 6.51%

We repeat the procedure with changing the time and end-value to adjust for the callabe conditions:

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

C 40.000

time 14 (7 years x 2 payment per year)

rate 0.032015131

40 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0320151313225188)^{-14} }{0.0320151313225188} = PV\\

PV $445.6984

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

Maturity   1,073.00 (call price)

time   14.00

rate  0.032015131

\frac{1073}{(1 + 0.0320151313225188)^{14} } = PV  

PV   690.23

PV c $445.6984

PV m  $690.2316

Total $1,135.9300

Againg his will be a semiannual rate so we multiply by two:

0.032015131 x 2 = 0.064030263 = 6.40%

Jackson just received a settlement in a lawsuit that promises two future payments of $450, the first payment at the end of the 7
vodomira [7]

Answer:

Total PV= $522.92

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

First payment= $450 at the end of the 7th year

Second payment= $450 at the end of the 12 year

Interest rate= 6% compounded annually

<u>To calculate the present value, we need to use the following formula on each payment:</u>

PV= FV/(1+i)^n

Cf1= 450/1.06^7= 299.28

Cf2= 450/1.06^12= 223.64

Total PV= $522.92

The following data are for a series of increasingly extensive flood-control projects.
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

$28,000 and $12,000, respectively

Explanation:

Marginal cost = incremental cost from Plan C to Plan D

= total cost (plan D) - total cost (plan C)

= 72,000 - 44,000 = $28,000

Marginal benefit = incremental benefit from Plan C to Plan D

= total benefit (plan D) - total benefit (plan C)

= 64,000 - 52,000 = $12,000

Therefore marginal cost and benefits for Plan D = $28,000 and $12,000, respectively
