Heginbotham Corp. issued 15-year bonds two years ago at a coupon rate of 8.5 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments. If these bonds currently sell for 106 percent of par value, what is the YTM?
The yield to maturity is given by rate function in excel as =rate(nper,pmt,pv,fv) where
nper = 15 * 2 = 30 semiannual periods
pmt = 0.085 *1000 = 85/2 = 42.5
pv = 1060
FV =1000
Hence semiannual yield = rate(30,42.5,-1060,1000) = 3.9069%
Hence annual yield = 3.9069*2 = 7.8139% = 7.81%
DMA Corporation has bonds on the market with 19.5 years to maturity, a YTM of 6.6 percent, and a current price of $1,043. The bonds make semiannual payments and have a par value of $1,000.
What must the coupon rate be on these bonds?
Coupon Amount = pmt(rate,nper,pv,fv)
Coupon Amount = pmt(6.6%/2,19.5*2,-1043,1000)
Coupon Amount = $ 34.98
Coupon rate = Coupon Amount*2/Face Value
Coupon rate = 34.98*2/1000
Coupon rate = 7.00%

Treasury bills are currently paying 7 percent and the inflation rate is 2.7 percent.
What is the approximate real rate of interest?
What is the exact real rate?
Apx.RealRateOfInterest = bill rate - inflation rate
7% - 2.70% = 4.3
RealRateof Return = (1+bill rate)/(1+inflation rate)-1
(1+7%)/(1+2.70%)-1 = 0.04187 of 4.187%, rounded to 4.19%
Suppose the real rate is 4% and the inflation rate is 5.6 percent. What rate would you expect to see on a treasury bill?
from fisher equation
(1+R) = (1+r) * (1+h)
R = (1+0.04) * (1+0.056) - 1
R = 1.098 - 1
R = 0.09824
R = 9.8%
Say you own an asset that had a total return last year of 11.7 percent. If the inflation rate last year was 6.9 percent, what was your real return?
(1 + inflation) ( 1 + real return) = (1 + total return)
(1 + 6.9%)( 1 + real return) = (1 + 11.7%)
(1 + real return) = (1 + 11.7%) / (1 + 6.9%) = 1.0449
Real Return = 1.0449 - 1 = 0.0449 = 4.49%
Locate the Treasury issue in Figure 7.4 maturing in February 2029. Assume a par value of $10,000.
What is its coupon rate?
What is its bid price in dollars?
What was the previous day's asked price in dollars?
the coupon rate is 5.250%
bid price = [par value x bid quote]
=[10,000*1.233594 (/or 123.3594%)]
= $12,335.94
asked price = [par value*(asked price-change)]
=[10000*(123.3594%-(-0.7031%))]
=$12,406
