Suppose a 10-year, 10% semiannual coupon bond with a par value of 1,000 is currently selling for 1,135.90, producing a nominal yield to maturity of 8%. However, the bond can be called after 5 years for a price of 1,050. (1) What is the bonds nominal yield to call (YTC)? (2) If you bought this bond, do you think you would be more likely to earn the YTM or the YTC? Why?

1. Bond Delta was issued at a price of Php1,011.80 which carries a face value of Php1,000.00 and a coupon at 10% p.a., which of the following statements is correct? Group of answer choices a. The yield of the instrument is 9%. b. The market rate of return must be lower than the coupon rate of 10%. c. The market rate of return must be greater than the coupon rate of 10%. d.

Suppose the real risk-free rate is 2.80%, the average future inflation rate is 2.30%, a maturity premium of 0.25% per year to maturity applies, i.e., MRP = 0.25%(t), where t is the number of years to maturity. Suppose also that a liquidity premium of 0.50% and a default risk premium of 2.50% applies to A-rated corporate bonds. What is the difference in the yields on a 5-year A-rated corporate bond and on a 10-year Treasury bond? Here we assume that the pure expectations theory is NOT valid, and disregard any cross-product terms, i.e., if averaging is required, use the arithmetic average. a. 4.25 p.p. b. 2.25 p.p. c. 4.19 p.p. d. 3.00 p.p. e. 1.75 p.p.
