Please show work You want to purchase a bond that will pay you $300 per year for the next four years. If the annual interest rate is 4%, then what is the price of your bond if the market is in equilibrium? You buy a stock that is expected to pay a dividend of $300 per year for the next four years.

Suppose that Jenna just bought a newly issued 15-year bond with a coupon rate equal to 7%. If Jenna sells the bond at the end of the year when the market price is $917, what would be the bond's yield to maturity? What return would she earn?

Jenna bought a bond that was issued by Sherlock Watson Industries (SWI) three years ago. The bond has a $1,000 maturity value, a coupon rate equal to 9%, a market rate (yield to maturity) of 10%, and it matures in 17 years. Interest is paid every six months; the next interest payment is scheduled six months from today. If the yield on a similar risk investment is 11%, what is the current market value (price) of the bond? What is the capital gains yield, current yield, and total yield that will be earned if the bond is held until it matures? Assume that the market rate does not change from now until maturity. Suppose that Jenna wants to sell her bond seven years from today when 10 years remain until maturity. If the market rate is 8% at the time she sells the bond in seven years, for what price will Jenna be able to sell the bond? What would be the capital gains yield, current yield, and total yield that the new investor will earn if he/she holds the bond until it matures 10 years…
Kirstin Brown is a portfolio manager at Standard life plc. She wants to estimate the interest rate riskof assets of the company consisting of 1 million shares of Bond A, 2 million shares of Bond B, and 2million shares of Bond C. The duration of Bond A is 5.59, a valuation model found that if interest ratesdecline by 30 basis points, the value of Bond A will increase to 83.5 pounds, and if interest ratesincrease by 30 basis points, the value of Bond to A will decline to 80.75 pounds. The same valuationmodel also found that if interest rates decreases by 50 basis points, the value of Bond B increases to104.6 pounds, and if interest rates increases by 50 basis points, the value of Bond B decreases to 96.4pounds, and the current value of Bond B is 100 pounds. Kirstin also knows from the valuation modelthat, by using the duration and convexity rule, if interest rates decline by 1%, the price of bond Cincreases approximately by 8.46 pounds, and if interest rates increase by 3%, the price of…
Fiona Trail is a recent retiree who is interested in investing some of her savings in corporate bonds. Her financial planner has suggested she invest in bond A, which has 5% coupon rate, paid semi-annually, mature in 15 years, and has a $1000 face value. Bond A has a current yield to maturity of 7.5% Without calculating the price of the bond, indicate whether the bond is trading at a premium, at a discount, or at par. Explain your reason. In other words, use concepts to justify your conclusion, without actually calculating the bond price here.
