About rate of return
For a consol that pays $100 annually, if the yield to maturity at the beginning of the year is 10%, and the yield to maturity at the end of the year is 5%, please calculate the return of the consol of this year.
If a coupon bond that is going to mature in two years is selling at par. Suppose its coupon rate is 10%, the yield to maturity at the begging of the year is 10%, and the yield to maturity at the end of the year is 5%. Please calculate the return of the coupon bond of this year.

- INTEREST RATE DETERMINATION AND YIELD CURVES a. What effect would each of the following events likely have on the level of nominal interest rates? 1. Households dramatically increase their savings rate. 2. Corporations increase their demand for funds following an increase in investment opportunities. 3. The government runs a larger-than-expected budget deficit. 4. There is an increase in expected inflation. b. Suppose you are considering two possible investment opportunities: a 12-year Treasury bond and a 7-year, A-rated corporate bond. The current real risk-free rate is 4%; and inflation is expected to be 2% for the next 2 years, 3% for the following 4 years, and 4% thereafter. The maturity risk premium is estimated by this formula: MRP = 0 02(t 1)%. The liquidity premium (LP) for the corporate bond is estimated to be 0.3%. You may determine the default risk premium (DRP), given the companys bond rating, from the table below. Remember to subtract the bonds LP from the corporate spread given in the table to arrive at the bonds DRP. What yield would you predict for each of these two investments? Rate Corporate Bond Yield Spread = DRP + LP U.S. Treasury 0.83% ---- AAA corporate 0.93 0.10% AA corporate 1.29 0.46 A corporate 1.67 0.84 c.

The Eurobond would cost only 0.55 percent to issue but would bear an annual coupon of 6.88 percent. Both issues would mature in 10 years. a.
