11. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 6-11 Most corporate and government bonds pay coupons on a semiannual basis. Some companies issue zero-coupon bonds by selling them at a deep discount. For computing the price of these bonds, the values of the inputs have to be adjusted according to the frequency of the coupons (or absence thereof). –For example, for semiannual bonds, the annual coupon is divided by 2, the number of years is multiplied by 2, and the YTM is divided by 2. –The price of the bond can then be calculated by using the TVM equation, a financial calculator, or a spreadsheet. 6.2 Semiannual Bonds and Zero- Coupon Bonds

As of August 2008, the 8.5%, 2022 Coca-Cola bond has only 27 coupons left to be paid on it until it matures on Feb. 1, 2022. FIGURE 6.6 Remaining cash flow of the Coca-Cola bond.

20. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 6-20 6.2 (B) Zero-Coupon Bonds Known as “pure” discount bonds and sold at a discount from face value Do not pay any interest over the life of the bond. At maturity, the investor receives the par value, usually $1000. Price of a zero-coupon bond is calculated by merely discounting its par value at the prevailing discount rate or yield to maturity.

22. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 6-22 6.2 (C) Amortization of a Zero-Coupon Bond The discount on a zero-coupon bond is amortized over its life. Interest earned is calculated for each 6-month period. For example,.04*790.31=$31.62 Interest is added to price to compute ending price. Zero-coupon bond investors have to pay tax on annual price appreciation, even though no cash is received.

27. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 6-27 6.3 Yields and Coupon Rates A bond’s coupon rate differs from its yield to maturity (YTM). Coupon rate is set by the company at the time of issue. It is fixed (except for newer innovations that have variable coupon rates). YTM is dependent on market, economic, and company-specific factors and is therefore variable.

28. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 6-28 6.3 (A) The First Interest Rate: Yield to Maturity Expected rate of return on a bond if held to maturity. The price that willing buyers and sellers settle at determines a bond’s YTM at any given point. Changes in economic conditions and risk factors will cause bond prices and their corresponding YTMs to change. YTM can be calculated by entering the coupon amount (PMT), price (PV), remaining number of coupons (n), and par value (FV) into the TVM equation, financial calculator, or spreadsheet.

29. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 6-29 6.3 (B) The “Other” Interest Rate: Coupon Rate The coupon rate on a bond is set by the issuing company at the time of issue. It represents the annual rate of interest that the firm is committed to pay over the life of the bond. If the rate is set at 7%, the firm is committing to pay.07*$1000 = $70 per year on each bond. It is paid either in a single check or two checks of $35 paid six months apart.

30. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved. 6-30 6.3 (C) Relationship of Yield to Maturity and Coupon Rate An issuing firm gets the bond rated by a rating agency such as Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s. Then, based on the rating and planned maturity of the bond, it sets the coupon rate to equal the expected yield, as indicated in the Yield Book (available in the capital markets at that time), and sells the bond at par value ($1000). Once issued, if investors expect a higher yield on the bond, its price will go down and the bond will sell below par or as a discount bond, and vice-versa. Thus, a bond’s YTM can be equal to (par bond), higher than (discount bond) or lower than (premium bond) its coupon rate.

If investors are currently offering $1200 on each of these bonds, what is their expected yield to maturity on the investment? If you are willing to pay no more than $980 for this bond, what is your expected YTM? Remaining number of coupons = 19*2 = 38 Semiannual coupon amount =(.08*$1000)/2 = $40

Help investors gauge likelihood of default by issuer. Help issuing companies establish a yield on newly issued bonds. – Junk bonds: the label given to bonds that are rated below BBB. These bonds are considered to be speculative in nature and carry higher yields than those rated BBB or above (investment grade). –Fallen angels: the label given to bonds that have had their ratings lowered from investment to speculative grade.

Also include state bonds, issued by state governments Also include municipal bonds, issued by county, city, or local government agencies. Treasury bills are zero-coupon, pure discount securities with maturities ranging from 1-, 3-, and 6-months up to 1 year. Treasury notes have between 2- to 10-year maturities. Treasury bonds have greater than 10-year maturities, when first issued.

For example, let’s assume you are pricing a 7-year, 6% coupon (semiannual) $100,000 face value Treasury note, using an expected yield of 8%: FIGURE 6.11 U.S. Government Treasury Note Cash Flows

45. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Prentice Hall.

Bank discount yield: a special discount rate used in conjunction with Treasury bills under a 360 day- per- year convention (commonly assumed by bankers). Bond equivalent yield (BEY): the APR equivalent of the bank discount yield calculated by adjusting it as follows: BEY = _____365 * Bank discount yield________ 360 - (days to maturity * discount yield)

Price of T-bill = Face value * [1-(discount yield * days until maturity/360)] Price of T-bill = $10,000 * [ 1 - (.0262 * 105/360)] = $10,000*0.9923583 Price of T-bill = $9,923.58 BEY =.026768 = 2.68% (rounded to 2 decimals) BEY = _____365 * Bank discount yield_______ 360 - (days to maturity * discount yield) = __365 *.0262__ 360 - (105*.0262)
