Albert purchased a bond with exactly 20 years to redemption. The bond pays annual coupons, in arrears, of 5% per annum and is redeemed at par. Albert, who is not liable to pay tax, will obtain a gross redemption yield of 6% per annum if he holds the bond utill redemption. (a) Calculate the purchase price Albert paid for the bond, per $100 nominal if his intention was to hold the bond utill redemption. (b) After exactly ten years, immediately after receiving payment of the coupon then due, Albert sells the bond to Vicky who is liable to pay income tax and capital gains tax at a rate of 30%. The bond is purchased by Vicky to provide a net rate of return of 6.5% per annum. (i) Calculate the price Vicky paid for the bond, per $100 nominal. (ii) Using trial-and-error followed by linear interpolation, calculate the annual effective rate of return, correct to 4 decimal places, earned by Albert during the period for which he held the bond.
A $1,000 par value bond was issued 20 years ago at a 9 percent coupon rate. It currently has 5 years remaining to maturity. Interest rates on similar debt obligations are now 10 percent. Compute the current price of the bond using an assumption of semiannual payments. If Mr. Robinson initially bought the bond at par value, what is his percentage loss (or gain)? Now assume Mrs. Pinson buys the bond at its current market value and holds it to maturity, what will her percentage return be? Although the same dollar amounts are involved in parts b and c,explain why the percentage gain is larger than the percentage loss.

If she sells these bonds at the current price of $892.92, what will be her realized yield on the bonds? Assume similar coupon-paying bonds make annual coupon payments. (Round intermediate calculations to 5 decimal places, e.g. 1.25145 and final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 15.25%.)
A firm has equity with market value $100 million and debt with market value at $70 million. The debt pays perpetual expected coupons of $3.5 million annually. The above numbers are prior to a stock buyback being announced. The firm uses some of its cash buyback stock on of $20 million. As a result of the fall in its cash, the expected coupon payment to debt reduce to $3.4 million (expected payments is the probability weighted future coupons, and the probability that in some future states of the world the firm would default has increased due to the the stock buyback). Also the rate of discount Rd for expected coupons paid to debt rises to 5.35%. Assume Modigliani-Miller is true (which also means there are no taxes). What will be the value of Equity after the stock buyback? (Do not include the $20 million that is paid to the Equity holders.)
Four years ago, Sandra Stills bought six-year, 5.5 percent coupon bonds issued by the Oriole Corp. For $944.99 she sells these bonds at the current price of $892.26, what will be her realized yield on the bonds? Assume similar coupon-paying bonds make annual coupon payments.
