Time value of money • How to calculate price of a bond • Why the price of a bond changes • Relation between yield and price • Relation between coupon and price • Price changes when approaching maturity • Floaters and inverse floaters • Accrued interest and price quotes Fabozzi Ch 2
-PV 5 5 5 5 105 Time Value of Money • present value PV = CFt/(1+r)t • Future value FV = CFt(1+r)t • Net present value NPV = sum of all PV Fabozzi Ch 2
Time Value • You have $100 now and are going to deposit it for 5 years with 6% interest. • What will be the final amount? • It depends on calculation method! • Yearly compounding: $100*1.065 • Semiannual compounding: $100*1.0312 • Monthly compounding: $100*1.00560 Fabozzi Ch 2
Periodic Rate Annual interest rate A r = = Number of periods in a year n Effective Rate Fabozzi Ch 2
Pricing of Bonds Zero coupon bond Fabozzi Ch 2
Pricing of Bonds Term structure of interest rates Fabozzi Ch 2
Yield Yield = IRR = Internal Rate of Return How do we know that there is a solution? Fabozzi Ch 2
Example • Price calculation: Yield calculation: Fabozzi Ch 2
Price-Yield Relationship • Price and yield (of a straight bond) move in opposite directions. price yield Fabozzi Ch 2
General pricing formula Fabozzi Ch 2
Accrued Interest • Accrued interest = interest due in full period* • (number of days since last coupon)/ • (number of days in period between coupon payments) Fabozzi Ch 2
Day Count Convention • Actual/Actual - true number of days • 30/360 - assume that there are 30 days in each month and 360 days in a year. • Actual/360 Fabozzi Ch 2
Floater • The coupon rate of a floater is equal to a reference rate plus a spread. • For example LIBOR + 50 bp. • Sometimes it has a cap or a floor. Fabozzi Ch 2
Inverse Floater • Is usually created from a fixed rate security. • Floater coupon = LIBOR + 1% • Inverse Floater coupon = 10% - LIBOR • Note that the sum is a fixed rate security. • If LIBOR>10% there is typically a floor. Fabozzi Ch 2
Price Quotes and Accrued Interest • Assume that the par value of a bond is $1,000. • Price quote is in % of par + accrued interest • the accrued interest must compensate the seller for the next coupon. Fabozzi Ch 2

FRM-99, Question 17 • Assume a semi-annual compounded rate of 8% per annum. What is the equivalent annually compounded rate? • A. 9.2% • B. 8.16%C. 7.45% • D. 8% Fabozzi Ch 2
FRM-99, Question 17 • (1 + ys/2)2 = 1 + y • (1 + 0.08/2)2 = 1.0816 ==> 8.16% Fabozzi Ch 2
FRM-99, Question 28 • Assume a continuously compounded interest rate is 10% per annum. What is the equivalent semi-annual compounded rate? • A. 10.25% per annum. • B. 9.88% per annum. • C. 9.76% per annum. • D. 10.52% per annum. Fabozzi Ch 2
FRM-99, Question 28 • (1 + ys/2)2 = ey • (1 + ys/2)2 = e0.1 • 1 + ys/2 = e0.05 • ys = 2 (e0.05 - 1) = 10.25% Fabozzi Ch 2
Mortgage example • You take a mortgage $100,000 for 10 years with yearly payments and 7% interest. • What is the size of each payment? Fabozzi Ch 2
Mortgage example • How much do you own bank after 3 first payments? What is the fair value of your debt if interest rates are 5%? Fabozzi Ch 2
