1 Structure of fixed icome securities Bod Valuatio The Structure of fixed icome securities Price & ield to maturit (tm) Term structure of iterest rates Treasur STRIPS No-arbitrage pricig of coupo bods A Fixed Icome Securit promises to pa fixed coupo pamets at a prespecified dates ad a fixed pricipal amout (the face value) at the maturit date. Whe there are o coupo pamets the the bod is called a zero coupo bod or a pure discout bod. Pamets of a N ear bod with aual coupo C ad face value F pamets: C C C CF Time: 0.. N- N Coupo Bods The coupo pamets o coupo bods are tpicall stated as a percetage of the pricipal (or face value) paid per ear. If coupo pamets are made times per ear, the the coupo amout is (c x F)/, where c is the coupo rate ad F is the face value. Uderstadig the terms: U.S. Treasur Notes ad Bods are tpicall issued with face value of $0,000, ad pa semi-aual coupos. Assume a 30 ear coupo rate of 7.5%. What pamets do ou receive from buig this bod? You receive a coupo pamet of (0.075 x $0,000)/ $375 twice a ear ad o the maturit date ou will receive the coupo of $375 plus the pricipal of $0,000.

2 Price & Yield to Maturit The Yield to Maturit (tm) is the (costat) discout rate which equates the discouted cash flows to the price. YTM o a ear Zero Coupo Bod with face value F ad price P F P ( ) Example: Suppose that a 5 ear discout bod with face value $00 is sellig for $95. What is the ield to maturit o this bod? % 5 ( ) 95 Calculatig the YTM of a Coupo Bod Example: A 7% coupo bod that pas auall, has ears to maturit, face value of $00 ad price of $98.. Fid the bod s tm % ( ) What if the price was $00? % ( ) What if the coupo rate was 0% (price still $98.)? % ( ) The Yield Curve/Term Structure of Iterest Rates So fare we have assumed that iterest rates are costat across time I fact, iterest rates var cosiderabl depedig o how log ou are goig to borrow/led: Log term iterest rates reflect ivestors expectatios of future real iterest rates ad iflatio i comig ears If either iflatio or the real iterest rate are expected to chage i the future, the log term rates will differ from short term rates. smartmoe.com Treasur STRIPS & the Yield Curve U.S. Treasur STRIPS are the stripped coupos from T-Bills ad Bods. The prices of these STRIPS are reported as price per $00 of face value. Deote the price of a ear STRIP bod b B The tm of a ear STRIP bod,, is 00 B ( ) 00 B Example: The prices of a, ad 3 ear STRIPS are $96, $9 ad $85. Fid the ields to maturit of these bods? %, %, % 9 85

3 Prices U.S. Govermet Strips (004) Yield Curve U.S. Govermet Strips (004) Chage i Yield Curve U.S. Govermet Strips (000 vs. 004) Usig market bod prices to discout cash flows Corporatios use bod prices whe evaluatig a stream of certai cash flows. Example: Suppose that ou are cosiderig a ivestmet i a project that geerates the followig cash flows with perfect certait: Date 3 4 Cash flow $50 $00 $00 $00 You also kow the discout bod (STRIPS) prices Date 3 4 Price B j $98 $95 $9 $88 What is the PV of the cash flows from the project? 3

4 There are two was to calculate the PV: Method I: use the discout bod (STRIPS) prices directl The PV of $ received i ears is B / PV Method II: use ields to maturit PV Date 3 4 j.04%.60%.8% 3.5% (.060) (.08) (.035) No-Arbitrage Pricig of Coupo Bods We ca value coupo bods usig the prices of STRIPS Example: Suppose that ou are give the optio to purchase a 5 ear coupo bod with aual coupo rate 0% ad face value of $,000. Also ou have the followig Treasur STRIPS data: Years to Maturit STRIPS Price $98 $95 $9 $89 $85 What must the price of the bod be? PV $, Pricig Coupo Bods with STRIPS prices I geeral the price of a bod is, Bod price C i i Bi 00 Where C i is the i th pamet (icludig coupos ad pricipal) ad B i is the time matched STRIPS price. Term Structure Implied b Coupo Bods We have showed how to price coupo bods usig the prices of STRIPS. STRIPS are priced usig the prices of coupo bods. Example: Cosider the followig coupo bod prices: Years to maturit Face value Coupo Rate Curret price Bod A $,000 5% $997.5 Bod B $,000 8% $,048 What are the prices ad tm s of the oe ad two ear discout bods? 4

Sthetic ear zero coupo bod: Bod A pas $050 at time. So bu 00/ uits of bod A. the price is x $95 Sthetic ear zero coupo bod: Bod B pas $080 at time. So bu 00/ uits of bod B. But the ou also get a coupo i the amout $80 x $ To elimiate this sell 7.407/ uits of bod A. Total cost is x x $90 5
