Expert Solution

Solution :-

(A) Time to Maturity ( Nper ) = 10 Years

Annual Coupon ( Pmt ) = $1,000 * 11% = $110

Face Value ( FV ) = $1,000

Price of Bond ( PV ) = $1,350

Now Yield to Maturity ( YTM ) =

Therefore Yield to maturity = 6.20%

(b) Current Yield = Annual Coupon / Price = $110 / $1,350 = 8.15%

Loss Yield = Current Yield - Yield to maturity

= 8.15% - 6.20%

= 1.95%

(d) Time to Call ( Nper ) = 5 Years

Annual Coupon ( Pmt ) = $1,000 * 11% = $110

Call Value ( CV ) = $1,150

Price of Bond ( PV ) = $1,350

Bond Yield to Call ( YTC ) = ??

(e) We will earn more in YTM
