18 YIELD TO MATURITY AND YIELD TO CALL Kempton Enterprises has bonds outstanding with a $1,000 face value and 10 years left until maturity. They have an 11% annual coupon payment, and their current price is $1,185. The bonds may be called in 5 years at 109% of face value (Call price = $1,090). What is the yield to maturity? What is the yield to call if they are called in 5 years? Which yield might investors expect to earn on these bonds? Why? The bond’s indenture indicates that the call provision gives the firm the right to call the bonds at the end of each year beginning in Year 5. In Year 5, the bonds may be called at 109% of face value, but in each of the next 4 years, the call percentage will decline by 1%. Thus, in Year 6, they may be called at 108% of face value; in Year 7, they may be called at 107% of face value; and so forth. If the yield curve is horizontal and interest rates remain at their current level, when is the latest that investors might expect the firm to call the…
Question twenty-two: A 5-year bond of $100 face value has an annual coupon of 16%. If the expected interest rates are 12%, 10%, 9%, 7% and 6% respectively for the next 5 years. Estimate the bond price?
Problem 6-23 Real Returns (LO3) Suppose that you buy a TIPS (inflation-indexed) bond with a 2-year maturity and a (real) coupon of 4.4% paid annually. If you buy the bond at its face value of $1,000, and the inflation rate is 8.60% in each year. a. What will be your cash flow in year 1? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Cash flow b. What will be your cash flow in year 2? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Cash flow c. What will be your real rate of return over the two-year period? Note: Enter your answer as a percent rounded to 1 decimal place.

Question 22: A 10-year corporate bond has coupon rate equal to 5.5%. This bond has a par value equal to 100, pays annual coupons on November 17, and matures on November 17, 2033. Because of the credit risk associated with the payments of this bond, the market is discounting its cash flows using yields that are 3 percentage points higher than the yields required from credit- risk-free government bonds. As a result, this corporate bond has a yield to maturity equal to 6.711%. A. What is the price of the 10-year corporate bond? B. Using the first-order linear approximation, what would be the percentage change in the price of this 10-year corporate bond if its yield to maturity decreases by 0.5 percentage points?
