Suppose the Schoof Company has this book value balance sheet: The notes payable are to banks, and the interest rate on this debt is 10%, the same as the rate on new bank loans. These bank loans are not used for seasonal financing but instead are part of the companys permanent capital structure. The long-term debt consists of 30,000 bonds, each with a par value of 1,000, an annual coupon interest rate of 6%, and a 20-year maturity. The going rate of interest on new long-term debt, rd, is 10%, and this is the present yield to maturity on the bonds. The common stock sells at a price of 60 per share. Calculate the firms market value capital structure.

Nikita Enterprises has bonds on the market making semi-annual payments, with 22 years to maturity, a par value of $1,000, and selling for $1,097.08. At this price, the bonds yield 8.72 percent. What must the coupon rate be on the bonds? Answer to four decimal places. e.g. 0.1234 If Treasury bills are currently paying 6.07% and the inflation rate is 2.55%, what is the approximate real rate of interest? Answer to four decimal places. e.g. 0.1234. Westco Company issued 21-year bonds 3 years ago at a coupon rate of 9.24 percent. The bonds make semiannual payments and have a par value of $1,000. If the YTM on these bonds is 6.45%, what is the current price of the bond in dollars? Do not include a $ in your answer.

Suppose the U.S. Treasury issued $500 million face value of 10 year, 7.5% bonds on January 15, 2005 at par value. Coupon interest is paid semi-annually with the face value due in 10 years (1/15/2015). On January 14, 2006, this bond is priced in the market to yield a stated 8%, using semiannual compounding. Calculate the correct price you will pay for the bond on 1/15/2006, for each $100 of face value. If, on the other hand, the stated yield-to-maturity of these bonds is 7%, what is their price (per $100 face value)? Suppose the U.S. Treasury issues $1,000 million face value, 7.5%, 30-year bonds on January 15, 2006. Coupon interest is paid semi-annually with the face value payable in 30 years (1/15/2036). If these bonds are priced in the market at 94 on the issue date (i.e. $94 purchase price for each $100 of face value on 1/15/2006), what is the stated yield to maturity? If the price is 101, what is the stated yield to maturity? What is the general relationship among price,…
