A 20-year, 8% semiannual coupon bond with a par value of $1,000 may be called in 5 years at a call price of $1,040. The bond sells for $1,100. (Assume that the bond has just been issued.)

Explanation / Answer

Answer a)

Periodic YTM=3.53%

Annualized Nominal YTM=7.06%

Answer d) Periodic YTC =3.16%

Annualized Nomial YTC =6.33%

The YTC is lower than the YTM because if the bond is called, the buyer will lose the difference between the current price in just 4 years , and the loss will offset much of the interest income.Note too that the bond called and replaced ,hence YTC will probably be earned.
