par value bonds

1.A 30-year, $1,000 par value bond has a 9.5% annual payment coupon. The bond currently sells for $875. If the yield to maturity remains at its current rate, what willthe price be 9 years from now?
2.Knapp Bros, LLC is planning to issue new 20-year bonds. The current plan is to make the bonds non-callable, but this may be changed. If the bonds are made callableafter 7 years at a 7% call premium, how would this affect their required rate of return?

Step a:

Calculate the Bond Yield if held to Maturity YTM = #NUM!
Number of Payments N = 1
Present Value of the Bond (the price the bond should sell for) PV = $875.00
Coupon Payments (Annual Coupon Interest Rate x Bond Par Value) PMT = $95.00
Par Value if Bond is held to Maturity par value = $1,000.00
Annual Coupon Interest Rate I = 10.93%

Step b:

Find the Present Value of the Bond (the price the bond should sell for) PV = $0.00
Number of Payments Nine Years from Today N =
Future Value of the Bond if Held to Maturity FV =
Coupon Payments PMT =
Yield to Maturity from Step 1 YTM =


Problem 2

Assumptions (not given in the exercise):
Par Value if Bond is held to Maturity FV = $1,000.00
Annual Coupon Interest Rate I = 5.00%
Yield to Maturity YTM = 6.50%

Coupon Payments (Coupon interest x Bond Par Value) PMT = $0.00
Years to Maturity N = 1
Years to Call YTC = 1
Call Premium % CP = 0.00%

Present Value of the Bond (the price the bond should sell for) -$938.97

Bond Yield Calculations
Current Yield 0.00%
Yield to Maturity 6.50%
Yield to Call 6.50%

If the YTM stays less than the 9% coupon rate, then 5 years from now when the call protection ends, the bond issuer will call the bond, pay the call premium, and refinance with new bonds at lower market rates. Thus, the market...
