Five years ago, Sportify Inc. issued a 20-year bond with an annual coupon rate of 12% to finance its $60 million oversea expansion (assume coupons are paid annually in this question). Because of the decreasing interest rates, it is considering the possibility of replacing it by a new 7% bond. To call the old bond, Sportify must pay the par value plus 3 annual coupons. The total flotation costs on the new issues are expected to be $1 million. The new bond will have to be issued one month before the old bondis called. During the overlap period, the proceeds from the new bond will earn 0.4% per month. The company’s tax rate is 20%. Calculate the NPV of the proposed refunding

To help finance a major expansion, a company sold a noncallable bond several years ago that now has 15 years to maturity. This bond has a 5% annual coupon, paid semiannually, it sells at a price of $985, and it has a par value of $1,000.

The Bowman Corporation has a bond obligation of $24 million outstanding, which it is considering refunding. Though the bonds were initially issued at 13 percent, the interest rates on similar issues have declined to 11.7 percent. The bonds were originally issued for 20 years and have 10 years remaining. The new issue would be for 10 years. There is a 9 percent call premium on the old issue. The underwriting cost on the new $24,000,000 issue is $540,000, and the underwriting cost on the old issue was $430,000. The company is in a 35 percent tax bracket, and it will use an 12 percent discount rate to analyze the refunding decision.

ABC Corp, is thinking about recalling P30 million of 15 year, P1,000 par value bonds, that were issued ten years ago. The bonds carry a coupon rate of 7.8% and have a call price of a P1,110. Initially the bonds generated total proceeds of P28.65 million and the flotation costs were P500,000. ABC Corp. wants to sell P30 million of 5 year, P1,000 par value bonds with a 5.8% coupon rate to retire the old bonds. The flotation costs on the new bond issue are estimated to be P525,000. Due to having issue the new bonds before the old bonds can be retired the company expects a period of 3 months were they have to pay interest on the old and the new bonds. Assume a tax rate of 30%.

five years ago, Highland, Inc. issued a corporate bond with an annual coupon of $5,500, paid at the rate of $2,750 every six months, and a maturity of 14 years. The par (face) value of the bond is $1,000,000. Recently, however, the company has run into some financial difficulty and has restructured its obligations. Today's coupon payment has already been paid, but the remaining coupon payments will be postponed until maturity. The postponed payments will accrue interest at an annual rate of 6.5% per year and will be paid as a lump sum amount at maturity along with the face value. The discount rate on the renegotiated bonds, now considered much riskier, has gone from 8.5% prior to the renegotiations to 12.5% per annum with the announcement of the restructuring. What is the price at which the new renegotiated bond should be selling today? Recall that the compounding interval is 6 months and the YTM, like all interest rates, is reported on an annualized basis. (Enter just the number in…
