1. Chapter Three Interest Rates and Security Valuation

2. Various Interest Rate Measures • Required Rate of Return • interest rate an investor should receive on a security given it’s risk • used to calculate the fair present value on a security • Expected rate of return • interest rate an investor would receive on a security if the security is bought at it’s current market price, receives all expected payments and sells at the end of the investment horizon • Coupon rate • interest rate on a bond used to calculate the annual cash flows the bond issuer promises to pay bond holder

3. Required Rate of Return ~ ~ ~ ~ FPV = CF1 + CF2 + CF3 + … + CFn (1 + rrr)1 (1 + rrr)2 (1 + rrr)3 (1 + rrr)n Where: rrr = Required rate of return CF1 = Cash flow projected in period t (t = 1, …, n) ~ = Indicates that projected cash flow is uncertain (due to default and other risks) n = Number of periods in the investment horizon

4. Expected Rate of Return ~ ~ ~ ~ P = CF1 + CF2 + CF3 + … + CFn (1 + Err)1 (1 + Err)2 (1 + Err)3 (1 + Err)n Where: Err = Expected rate of return CF1 = Cash flow projected in period t (t = 1, …, n) ~ = Indicates that projected cash flow is uncertain (due to default and other risks) n = Number of periods in the investment horizon

5. Realized Rate of Return The actual interest rate earned on an investment in a financial security P = RCF1 + RCF2 + … + RCFn (1 + rr)1 (1 + rr)2 (1 + rr)n Where: RCF = Realized cash flow in period t (t = 1, …, n) rr = Realized rate of return on a security

6. Bond Valuation • The valuation of a bond instrument employs time value of money concepts • Reflects present value of all cash flows promised or projected discounted at the required rate of return (rrr) • Expected rate of return (Err) is the interest rate that equates the current market price of the bond with the present value of all promised cash flows received over the life of the bond • Realized rate of return (rr) on a bond is the actual return earned on a bond investment that has already taken place

7. Bond Valuation Formula Vb = 1,000(.1) (PVIFA8%/2, 12(2)) + 1,000(PVIF8%/2, 12(2)) 2 Where: Vb = Present value of the bond M = Par or face value of the bond INT = Annual interest (or coupon) payment per year on the bond equals the par value of the bond times the (percentage) coupon rate N = Number years until the bond matures m = Number of times per year interest is paid id = Interest rate used to discount cash flows on the bond

8. Description of a Premium, Discount, and Par Bond • Premium bond • bond in which the present value of the bond is greater than its face value • Discount bond • bond in which the present value of the bond is less than its face value • Par bond • bond in which the present value of the bond is equal to its face value

9. Yield to Maturity The return or yield the bond holder will earn on the bond if he or she buys it at its current market price, receives all coupon and principal payments as promised, and holds the bond until maturity Vb = INT (PVIFAytm/m, Nm) + M(PVIFytm/m,Nm) m

10. Summary of Factors that Affect Security Prices and Price Volatility when Interest Rates Change • Interest Rate • negative relation between interest rate changes and present value changes • increasing interest rates = security price decrease at a decreasing rate • Time Remaining to Maturity • shorter the time to maturity, the closer the price is to the face value of the security • longer time to maturity = larger price change which increases at a decreasing rate • Coupon Rate • the higher the coupon rate, the smaller the price change for a given change in interest rates

11. Impact of Interest Rate Changes on Security Values Interest Rate Bond Value 12% 10% 8% 874.50 1,000 1,524.47

12. Balance sheet of an FI before and after an Interest Rate Increase (a) Balance Sheet before the Interest Rate Increase Assets Liabilities and Equity Bond (8% required rate of return) Bond (10% required rate of return) $1,152.47 $1,000 $152.47 Equity (b) Balance Sheet after 2% increase in the Interest Rate Increase Assets Liabilities and Equity Bond (10% required rate of return) Bond (12% required rate of return) $874.50 $1,000 Equity $125.50

13. Impact of Maturity on Security Values 12 Years to Maturity 16 Years to Maturity Required Rate of Return Percentage Price Change Percentage Price Change Fair Price* Price Change Price Change Fair Price* 8% $1,152.47 $1,178.74 -$178.74 -15.16% -$152.47 -13.23% $1,000.00 10% $1,000.00 -$140.84 -14.08% -$125.50 -12.55% 12% $874.50 $859.16 *The bond pays 10% coupon interest compounded semiannually and has a face value of $1,000

14. Impact of a Bond’s Maturity on its Interest Rate Sensitivity Absolute Value of Percent Change in a Bond’s Price for a Given Change in Interest Rates Time to Maturity

15. Impact of a Bond’s Coupon Rate on Its Interest Rate Sensitivity Interest Rate High-Coupon Bond Low-Coupon Bond Bond Value

16. Duration: A Measure of Interest Rate Sensitivity The weighted-average time to maturity on an investment N N  CFt  tPVt  t t = 1(1 + R)tt = 1 D = N = N CFt PVt t = 1 (1 + R)t t = 1

18. Features of the Duration Measure • Duration and Coupon Interest • the higher the coupon payment, the lower its duration • Duration and Yield to Maturity • duration increases as yield to maturity increases • Duration and Maturity • Duration increases with the maturity of a bond but at a decreasing rate

19. Economic Meaning of Duration • Measure of the average life of a bond • Measure of a bond’s interest rate sensitivity (elasticity)
