Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education. All rights reserved When the coupon bond ( 附息債券 ) is priced at its face value ( 面額 ), the yield to maturity equals the coupon rate ( 票面利率 ) The price of a coupon bond and the yield to maturity are negatively related The yield to maturity （市場殖利率） is greater than the coupon rate ( 票面利率 ) when the bond price ( 債券價格 ) is below its face value ( 面值 ) Table 1 Yields to Maturity on a 10%- Coupon-Rate Bond Maturing in Ten Years (Face Value = $1,000) That’s table can calculates by function of IRR in EXCEL

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education. All rights reserved The Distinction Between Rate of Return and Interest Rates The return equals the yield to maturity only if the holding period( 持有期間 ) equals the time to maturity( 到期期間 ) A rise in interest rates( 利率上升 ) is associated with a fall in bond prices( 債券價格下降 ), resulting in a capital loss( 資本損失 ) if time to maturity is longer than the holding period The more distant a bond’s maturity( 距到期日越長 ), the greater the size of the percentage price change( 價格變動百分比 ) associated with an interest-rate change( 利率變量 )

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education. All rights reserved Rate of Return and Interest Rates (cont’d) The more distant a bond’s maturity( 距到期日越遠 ), the lower the rate of return( 報酬率下降越多 ) the occurs as a result of an increase in the interest rate( 利率上升會導致 ) Even if a bond has a substantial initial interest rate, its return can be negative if interest rates rise ( 利率與報酬率成反比 )

All rights reserved Real and Nominal Interest Rates Nominal interest rate makes no allowance for inflation Real interest rate is adjusted for changes in price level so it more accurately reflects the cost of borrowing Ex ante real interest rate is adjusted for expected changes in the price level Ex post real interest rate is adjusted for actual changes in the price level

The real rate is constructed using the procedure outlined in Frederic S. Mishkin, “The Real Interest Rate: An Empirical Investigation,” Carnegie-Rochester Conference Series on Public Policy 15 (1981): 151–200. This procedure involves estimating expected inflation as a function of past interest rates, inflation, and time trends and then subtracting the expected inflation measure from the nominal interest rate. ftp://ftp.bis.gov/special.requests/cpi/
