a)Calculation of Yield to maturity | ||
Interest as it is semi annual(1000*0.11/2) | 55 | |
Face value | $1000 | |
BOnd price | $1368.95 | |
Years to maturity( as semi annual so 12*2) | 24 | |
Yield to maturity= | Interest+ (Face value-bond price)/years to maturity | |
(face value + bond price)/2 | ||
55+(1000-1368.95)/24 | ||
(1000+1368.95)/2 | ||
3.35% | ||
Yield to maturity for half year is 3.35% | ||
Yield to maturity for full year is 6.70% | ||
b)Calculation of Yield to call | ||
Interest as it is semi annual(1000*0.11/2) | 55 | |
Face value | $1000 | |
Call price | $1211 | |
Years to call( as semi annual so 6*2) | 12 | |
Yield to call= | Interest+ (Face value-call price)/years to call | |
(face value + call price)/2 | ||
55+(1000-1211)/12 | ||
(1000+1211)/2 | ||
3.38% | ||
Yield to call for half year is 3.35% | ||
Yield to call for full year is 6.76% | ||
