A particular country's treasury issued a 35-year bond on October 15, 2014,
paying 2.375% interest. Thus, if you bought $100,000 worth of these bonds
you would receive $2,375 per year in interest for 35 years. An investor
wishes to buy the rights to receive the interest on $100,000 worth of these
bonds. The amount the investor is willing to pay is the present value of the
interest payments, assuming a 5% rate of return. Assuming (incorrectly, but
approximately) that the interest payments are made continuously, what will
the investor pay? HINT [See Example 6.] (Round your answer to the nearest
cent.)
In May 2000, the U.S. Treasury issued 30-year bonds with a coupon rate of 6.25%, paid semi-annually. A bond with a face value of $1,000 pays $31.25 (1,000 × 0.0625 / 2) every six months for the next 30 years; in May 2030, the bond also repays the principal amount, $1,000. 1. What is the value of the bond if, immediately after issue in May 2000, the 30-year interest rate increases to 7.5%? 2. What is the value of the bond if, immediately after issue in May 2000, the 30-year interest rate decreases to 5.0%? 3. On a graph in Excel, show how the value of the bond changes as the interest rate changes (plot the value as a function of the interest rate). At what interest rate is the value of the bond equal to its face value of $1,000?
In December 2010, LoloLimon issued $100 million in bonds. These bonds originally had a 25 year maturity, a 8.5% coupon rate, and semi-annual
interest payments on a $1,000 Par value. When they originated, the bonds sold at par. Since origination, the required rate of return on LoloLimon bonds
has hovered between a low of 7.25% to a high of 12.5% and currently sell at $45 above par value. What is the current cost of debt (rd) for LoloLimon?
