Treasury Bills • Pricing of Treasury Bills: • Treasury bills are priced on a bond-equivalent yield basis. The bond-equivalent yield, YBE, is the annualized difference between the face value and the purchase price of the bill. Dr. HishamHandalAbdelbaki - FIN 221 - Chapter 7
1- the formula for the bond equivalent yield (ybe) : Where Pf is the face price, P0 is the purchase price and n is the number of days to maturity. 2- the formula for purchase price on bond equivalent yield basis: Dr. HishamHandalAbdelbaki - FIN 221 - Chapter 7
Example 1: You are given the following data: Face price = 10,000, buying price = 9760, days to maturity = 100. what is the yield on a bond – equivalent basis? Solution YBE = [(Face Value - Price)/Price] x [(365/Days to Maturity) ] x 100% YBE = [(10000 – 9760) / 9760] [365 / 100] [100%] = (0.025 )(3.65)(100%) = 8.9% Dr. HishamHandalAbdelbaki - FIN 221 - Chapter 7
Example 2: You are given the following data: Face price = 10,000, days till maturity = 91 and yield = 8.19%. what is buying price on a bond – equivalent basis? Solution Price = [face price] / [1 + (YBE * days to Maturity / 365) = 10000 / 1.0204 = 9800 Class work In example 1, assume the purchase price is unknown and calculate it by using other information.
