- Which of the following statements concerning warrants is CORRECT? JUST EXPLAIN ONE ANSWER WHICH IS INCORRECT. Bonds with warrants and convertible bonds both have option features that their holders can exercise if the underlying stock’s price increases. However, if the option is exercised, the issuing company’s debt declines if warrants were used but remains the same if it used convertibles. Warrants are long-term call options that have value because holders can buy the firm’s common stock at the exercise price regardless of how high the stock’s price has risen. A firm’s investors would generally prefer to see it issue bonds with warrants than straight bonds because the warrants dilute the value of new shareholders, and that value is transferred to existing shareholders.arrow_forwardsecurities in an inefficient market are in equilibrium and fairly priced in the sense that the price reflects all publicly available information on each security Select one: O True O Falsearrow_forwardIn the Australian options markets the warrant that has an upper limit applied to the upside profit available for the holder is a/an: Select one: a. instalment warrant b.

- In general, would a falling rate of market interest cause the price of an MPT security to increase or decrease? Would the increase or decrease be greater if the security was issued at a discount? Would an increase in prepayment be likely or unlikely? Describe with an example.arrow_forwardA warrant gives the owner: a) the obligation to sell securities directly to the firm at a fixed price for a specified time. b) the obligation to purchase securities directly from the firm at a fixed price for a specified time. c) the right to purchase securities directly from the firm at a fixed price for a specified time. d) the right to sell securities directly to the firm at a fixed price for a specified time e) None of the above.arrow_forwardWhich of the following is not a characteristic of an efficient market? Investors can frequently make profits by predicting asset market prices that are different from intrinsic values. The market value of all securities at any one instant in time fully reflect all available information. Investors act rationally. The forces of demand and supply work to maintain that the security's market price and its intrinsic value are in equilibrium.arrow_forward
- The maximum rate of return needed to induce an investor to purchase or hold a security is referred to as the investor's required rate of return. OTRUE.

Does this mean that the component cost of a debt-pluswarrants package is less than the cost of straight debt? Explain.arrow_forwardExploring Finance: The Security Market Line and Risk Premium Changes Security Market Line: Risk Premium Changes Conceptual Overview: Explore how risk premium changes affect the security market line. The Security Market Line defines the required rate of return for a security to be worth buying or holding. The line, depicted in blue in the graph, is the sum of the risk-free return (rf in the slider) and a risk premium determined by the market-risk premium (RPM) multiplied by the security's beta coefficient for risk. Drag the slider below the graph to change the relationship between a security's beta coefficient and the amount of the market risk premium. Drag left or right on the graph to move the cursor to evaluate securities with different beta coefficients. In this graph, the risk-free return is fixed at 6%. r = r_{RF} + RP_M * beta = 6\% + 5\% * 1 = 6\% + 5.00\% = 11.00\%r=rRF+RPM∗beta=6%+5%∗1=6%+5.00%=11.00% 1.

Can a derivative security's value be determined by an underlying fixed income index? If yes, explain. What is the difference objective, if any, between a long futures contract, a put option contract, and a long forward contract? What are the two primary functions of derivative securities (i.e., what classifications of participants do they serve)? Finally, what does "market efficiency" suggest? Explain the significant advantage and disadvantage of Inflation Protected Treasury Bonds (TIPS). Who or what investor would likely prefer a municipal bond issued by the Commonwealth of Virginia? If a corporate bond yields 8%, to be competitive (e.g., indifferent), what would a municipal bond need to yield for an investor in the 40% tax bracket?

According to the efficient market hypothesis (EMH), in a perfect market, the security prices reflect the true and fair value of all the underlying securities' assets at any time. On the contrary, an inefficient market is a market whose security price at any time does not entirely reflect the value of its assets. In this form of market, traders can beat the market because they can employ strategies like arbitrage and speculation. Explain with example, the price reactions towards the bad news that indicate market is inefficient.arrow_forward
