Financial management: lecture 4 A problem John is 65 years old and wants to retire next year. After retirement, he wants to have an annual income of $24,000 for 20 years from his retirement fund, which has an annual interest rate of 6%. Suppose John will get the first retirement income one year from now. Then How much money should John have in his retirement fund in the end of this year? Suppose John started to work 19 years ago and put the same amount of money every year in his retirement fund. How much should he put every year? ( including this year, there will be a total of 20 years) Financial management: lecture 4

Nominal and real interest rates Nominal interest rate What is it? Real interest rate Inflation Their relationship 1+real rate =(1+nominal rate)/(1+inflation) Financial management: lecture 4

Financial management: lecture 4 Inflation rule Be consistent in how you handle inflation!! Use nominal interest rates to discount nominal cash flows. Use real interest rates to discount real cash flows. You will get the same results, whether you use nominal or real figures Financial management: lecture 4 12

Financial management: lecture 4 Example You own a lease that will cost you $8,000 next year, increasing at 3% a year (the forecasted inflation rate) for 3 additional years (4 years total). If discount rates are 10% what is the present value cost of the lease? Financial management: lecture 4 14

Financial management: lecture 4 Bonds Bond – a security or a financial instrument that obligates the issuer (borrower) to make specified payments to the bondholder during a time horizon. Coupon - The interest payments made to the bondholder. Face Value (Par Value, Face Value, Principal or Maturity Value) - Payment at the maturity of the bond. Coupon Rate - Annual interest payment, as a percentage of face value. Financial management: lecture 4 3

Financial management: lecture 4 Bonds A bond also has (legal) rights attached to it: if the borrower doesn’t make the required payments, bondholders can force bankruptcy proceedings in the event of bankruptcy, bond holders get paid before equity holders Financial management: lecture 4

Financial management: lecture 4 An example of a bond A coupon bond that pays coupon of 10% annually, with a face value of $1000, has a discount rate of 8% and matures in three years. The coupon payment is $100 annually The discount rate is different from the coupon rate. In the third year, the bondholder is supposed to get $100 coupon payment plus the face value of $1000. Can you visualize the cash flows pattern? Financial management: lecture 4

Financial management: lecture 4 Bonds WARNING The coupon rate IS NOT the discount rate used in the Present Value calculations. The coupon rate merely tells us what cash flow the bond will produce. Since the coupon rate is listed as a %, this misconception is quite common. Financial management: lecture 4 5

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Valuation The price of a bond is the Present Value of all cash flows generated by the bond (i.e. coupons and face value) discounted at the required rate of return. Financial management: lecture 4 6

Financial management: lecture 4 Zero coupon bonds Zero coupon bonds are the simplest type of bond (also called stripped bonds, discount bonds) You buy a zero coupon bond today (cash outflow) and you get paid back the bond’s face value at some point in the future (called the bond’s maturity ) How much is a 10-yr zero coupon bond worth today if the face value is $1,000 and the effective annual rate is 8% ? Face value PV Time=0 Time=t Financial management: lecture 4 6

Zero coupon bonds (continue) So for the zero-coupon bond, the price is just the present value of the face value paid at the maturity of the bond Do you know why it is also called a discount bond? Financial management: lecture 4

Financial management: lecture 4 Coupon bond The price of a coupon bond is the Present Value of all cash flows generated by the bond (i.e. coupons and face value) discounted at the required rate of return. Financial management: lecture 4 7

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Pricing Example What is the price of a 6 % annual coupon bond, with a $1,000 face value, which matures in 3 years? Assume a required return of 5.6%. Financial management: lecture 4 8

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Pricing Example (continued) What is the price of the bond if the required rate of return is 15 %? Financial management: lecture 4 11

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Pricing Example (continued) What is the price of the bond if the required rate of return is 5.6% AND the coupons are paid semi-annually? Financial management: lecture 4 12

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Pricing Example (continued) What is the price of the bond if the required rate of return is 5.6% AND the coupons are paid semi-annually? Financial management: lecture 4 13

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Pricing Example (continued) Q: How did the calculation change, given semi-annual coupons versus annual coupon payments? Financial management: lecture 4 14

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Pricing Example (continued) Q: How did the calculation change, given semi-annual coupons versus annual coupon payments? Time Periods Paying coupons twice a year, instead of once doubles the total number of cash flows to be discounted in the PV formula. Financial management: lecture 4 15

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Pricing Example (continued) Q: How did the calculation change, given semi-annual coupons versus annual coupon payments? Time Periods Paying coupons twice a year, instead of once doubles the total number of cash flows to be discounted in the PV formula. Discount Rate Since the time periods are now half years, the discount rate is also changed from the annual rate to the half year rate. Financial management: lecture 4 16

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Yields Current Yield - Annual coupon payments divided by bond price. Yield To Maturity (YTM)- Interest rate for which the present value of the bond’s payments equal the market price of the bond. Financial management: lecture 4 17

Financial management: lecture 4 An example of a bond A coupon bond that pays coupon of 10% annually, with a face value of $1000, has a discount rate of 8% and matures in three years. It is assumed that the market price of the bond is the same as the present value of the bond. What is the current yield? What is the yield to maturity. Financial management: lecture 4

Financial management: lecture 4 My solution First, calculate the bond price P=100/1.08+100/1.082+1100/1.083 =$1,051.54 Current yield=100/1051.54=9.5% YTM=8% Financial management: lecture 4

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Yields Calculating Yield to Maturity (YTM=r) If you are given the market price of a bond (P) and the coupon rate, the yield to maturity can be found by solving for r. Financial management: lecture 4 19

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Yields Example What is the YTM of a 6 % annual coupon bond, with a $1,000 face value, which matures in 3 years? The market price of the bond is $1,010.77 Financial management: lecture 4 21

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Yields In general, there is no simple formula that can be used to calculate YTM unless for zero coupon bonds Calculating YTM by hand can be very tedious. We don’t have this kind of problems in the quiz or exam You may use the trial by errors approach get it. Financial management: lecture 4 22

Financial management: lecture 4 Bond Yields (3) Can you guess which one is the solution in the previous example? 6.6% 7.1% 6.0% 5.6% Financial management: lecture 4 23

The bond price, coupon rates and discount rates If the coupon rate is larger than the discount rate, the bond price is larger than the face value. If the coupon rate is smaller than the discount rate, the bond price is smaller than the face value. Financial management: lecture 4

The rate of return on a bond Example: An 8 percent coupon bond has a price of $110 dollars with maturity of 5 years and a face value of $100. Next year, the expected bond price will be $105. If you hold this bond this year, what is the rate of return? Financial management: lecture 4 24

Financial management: lecture 4 My solution The expected rate of return for holing the bond this year is (8-5)/110=2.73% Price change =105-110=-$5 Coupon payment=100*8%=$8 The investment or the initial price=$110 Financial management: lecture 4
