What is the bond’s invoice price? Accrued Interest $42.50 160 $18.68 2 182 Invoice price Flat Price Accrued Interest Invoice price $925.30 $18.68 $943.98 10-18 10.3 BOND YIELDS 10-19 Bond Prices and Yields • Prices and Yields (required rates of return) have an inverse relationship • When yields get very high the value of the bond will be very low • When yields approach zero, the value of the bond approaches the sum of the cash flows 10-20 Promised Yield to Maturity (YTM) • YTM is the discount rate that makes the present value of a bond’s payments equal to its price • Find the YTM for a 8% coupon, 30-year bond selling at $1,276.76 2N ½$C Par P T 2N (1 ½r) (1 ½r) T 1 60 $40 $1,000 $1,276.76 T 60 T 1 (1 ½r) (1 ½r) r 3% • Assumption of this calculation? 10-21 Figure 10.3 The Inverse Relationship Between Bond Prices and Yields 10-22 Alternative Measures of Yield • Current Yield – Annual dollar coupon divided by the price • Yield to Call – Call price replaces par – Call date replaces maturity • Holding Period Yield – Considers actual reinvestment rate on coupons – Considers any change in price if the bond is sold prior to maturity 10-23 Yield to Call Illustrated 10-24 Figure 10.4 Bond Prices: Callable and Straight Debt 10-25 Figure 10.5 Growth of $1000 invested in a 2 year bond 10-26 Example 10.5 Growth of $1000 invested in a 2 year bond 10-27 10.4 BOND PRICES OVER TIME 10-28 Premium and Discount Bonds • Premium Bond – Coupon rate exceeds yield to maturity – Bond price will decline to par over its maturity • Discount Bond – Yield to maturity exceeds coupon rate – Bond price will increase to par over its maturity • Can you explain why these price change will occur? 10-29 Figure 10.6 Premium and Discount Bonds over Time 10-30 Figure 10.7 The Price of a Zero Coupon Bond over Time How does one earn a rate of return on a zero coupon bond?

How is the price appreciation taxed? 10-31 10.5 DEFAULT RISK AND BOND PRICING 10-32 Default Risk and Ratings • Main Ratings Companies – Moody’s Investor Service – Standard & Poor’s – Fitch • Main Rating Categories – Investment grade – Speculative grade (junk bonds) 10-33 Figure 10.8 Definitions of Bond Rating Classes 10-34 Factors Used by Rating Companies • Coverage ratios – TIE and Fixed Charges Coverage ratio • Leverag e ratios – Debt to equity or Debt to assets • Liquidity ratios – Current and quick ratio • Profitability ratios – Return on assets and return on equity • Cash flow to debt – Cash flow to debt 10-35 Financial Ratios and Default Risk 10-36 Protection Against Default • Sinking funds – Issuer may repurchase a given fraction of the outstanding bonds each year, or – Issuer may either repurchase at the lower of open market price or at a pre-specified price, usually par; bonds are chosen randomly • Serial bonds – Staggered maturity dates • Subordination of future debt – Senior debt holders must be paid in full before junior debt holders. 10-37 Protection Against Default • Dividend restrictions – Limit on liquidating dividends • Collateral – A specific asset pledged against possible default on a bond. – What is a bond called that has no specific collateral? 10-38 Figure 10.9 Callable Bond Issued by Mobil 10-39 Example 10.10 YTM and Default 10-40 Figure 10.10 Yields Spreads on 10 year bonds 10-41 Credit Default Swaps A credit default swap (CDS) is an insurance policy on the default risk of a bond or loan. •The seller of the swap collects an annual premium (and sometimes an upfront fee) from the swap buyer. •The buyer of the swap collects nothing unless the bond issuer or loan borrower defaults, in which case the seller of the swap essentially pays the drop in value from par to the swap buyer. 10-42 Credit Default Swaps • CDSs can be used to speculate on financial health of firms. – Swap buyer need not hold the underlying bond or loan. – At their peak there were reportedly $63 trillion worth of CDS; US GDP is about $14 trillion. – What is the implication of the size of this market if the economy experiences greater than expected defaults? – Did this contribute to the Financial Crisis of 2008? 10-43 Credit Default Swaps 10-44 Credit Default Swaps • New regulations on CDS will be implemented – CDS contracts will be required to be traded on an exchange with collateral requirements to limit risk. – Exchange trading will also increase transparency of positions of institutions. 10-45 10.6 THE YIELD CURVE 10-46 Term Structure of Interest Rates • Relationship between yields to maturity and maturity • Yield curve: a graph of the yields on bonds relative to the number of years to maturity – Have to be similar risk or other factors would be influencing yields 10-47 Figure 10.12 Treasury Yield Curves 10-48 Theories of the Term Structure • Expectations – Long term rates are a function of expected future short term rates – Upward slope means that the market is expecting higher future short term rates – Downward slope means that the market is expecting lower future short term rates • Liquidity Preference – Upward bias over expectations – The observed long-term rate includes a risk premium 10-49 Figure 10.13 Returns to Two 2-year Investment Strategies 10-50 Forward Rates Implied in the Yield Curve (1 yn) (1.12) 2 n (1 yn-1) (1 f n) n-1 1 (1.11) (1.1301) For example, using 1-yr and 2-yr rates Longer term rate, yn = 12% Shorter term rate, yn-1 = 11% Forward rate, a one-year rate in one year = 13.01% 10-51 Figure 10.14 Illustrative Yield Curves 10-52 Figure 10.15 Term Spread 10-53
