Concept No. 1: Introduction (Fixed Income Security)

Bonds are the type of long term obligation which pay periodic interest & repay the principal
amount on maturity.
Purpose of Bonds indenture & describe affirmative and negative covenants
The contract that specifies all the rights and obligations of the issuer and the owners of a
fixed income security is called the Bond indenture.
These contract provisions are known as covenants and include both negative covenants
(prohibitions on the borrower) and affirmative covenants (actions that the borrower promises
to perform) sections.
1. Negative Covenants : This Includes
a) Restriction on asset sales (the company cant sell assets that have been pledged as
collateral).
b) Negative pledge of collateral (the company cant claim that the same assets back several
debt issues simultaneously).
c) Restriction on additional borrowings (the company cant borrow additional money unless
certain financial conditions are met).
2. Affirmative Covenants: This Includes
a) Maintenance of certain financial ratios.
b) Timely payment of principal and interest.
Common Options embedded in a bond Issue, Options benefit the issuer or the
Bondholder
Security owner options:
a) Conversion option
b) Put provision
c) Floors set a minimum on the coupon rate
Security issuer option:
a) Call provisions
b) Prepayment options
c) Caps set a maximum on the coupon rate

Note:
If Maturity Value is not given, then it is assumed to be equal to Face Value.
If Face Value is not given, then it is assumed to be Rs. 100 or Rs. 1000 according to the
Question.
If Maturity Year is not given, then it is assumed to be equal to infinity.
Concept No. 3: Valuation of Straight Bond/ Steps in the Bond Valuation Process
Straight Coupon Bonds are those bonds which pay equal amount of interest and repay principal
amount on Maturity.
Step 1: Estimates the cash flows over the Life of the bond.
Two type of Cash Flows:a) Coupon Payments
b) Return of Principal
Step 2: Determine the appropriate discount rate.
Step 3: Calculate the present value of the estimated cash flow using appropriate discount rate.

(SFM Study Material)
A Rs. 1,000 par value bond bearing a coupon rate of 14 per cent matures after 5 years, the
required rate of return on this bond is 13 per cent. Calculate the value of the bond.
CA. Gaurav Jain

Concept No. 4: Coupon Rate Structures
1. Zero Coupon Bond (Pure Discount Securities)
a) They do not pay periodic interest.
b) They pay the Par value at maturity and the interest results from the fact that Zero
Coupon Bonds are initially sold at a price below Par Value. (i.e. They are sold at a
significant discount to Par Value).
2. Step up Notes
a) They have coupon rates that increase over time at a specified rate.
b) The increase may take place one or more times during the life cycle of the issue.
3. Deferred Coupon Bonds
a) They carry coupons, but the initial coupon payments are deferred for some period.
b) The coupon payments accrue, at a compound rate, over the deferral period and are paid
as a lump sum at the end of that period.
c) After the initial deferment period has passed, these bonds pay regular coupon interest for
the rest of the life of the issue (to maturity).
4. Floating Rate Securities
a) These are bond for which coupon interest payments over the life of security vary based
on a specified reference rate.
b) Reference Rate may be LIBOR [London Interbank Offered Rate] or EURIBOR or any
other rate and then adds or subtracts a stated margin to or from that reference rate.
New coupon rate = Reference rate quoted margin
5. Inflation indexed Bond (TIPS)
a) They have coupon formulas based on inflation.
E.g.: Coupon rate = 3% + annual change in CPI
Concept No. 5: Valuation of Perpectual Bond/ Irredeemable Bond/ Non Callable

Bond
They are infinite bond, never redeemable, non- callable bond.
Value of Bond =
Kd= Cost of debt /Yield to Maturity
QUESTION NO. 2A

Concept No. 6: Valuation of Zero-Coupon Bond

Zero- coupon Bond has only a single payment at maturity.
Value of Zero- Coupon Bond is simply the PV of the Par or Face Value.
Bond value =
Kd= Discount rate/ Yield to Maturity
n = No. Of years

face value of Rs. 1000. If these bonds are priced to yield 10%, what is the present value of the
bonds?
QUESTION NO. 3B
(RTP)
On 1 June 2003 the financial manager of Gadgets Corporation's Pension Fund Trust is
reviewing strategy regarding the fund. Over 60% of the fund is invested in fixed rate long-term
bonds. Interest rates are expected to be quite volatile for the next few years. Among the
pension fund's current investments are two AAA rated bonds:
1. Zero coupon June 2018
2. 12% Gilt June 2018 (interest is payable semi-annually)
The current annual redemption yield (yield to maturity) on both bonds is 6%. The semi-annual
yield may be assumed to be 3%. Both bonds have a par value and redemption value of $ 100.
Required: Estimate the market price of each of the bonds if interest rates (yields):(i) increase by
1 %; (ii) decrease by 1 %. [Given PVF (2.5%, 30) = 0.4767, PVF (3%, 30) = 0.412, PVF (3.5%,

Example:
Consider a 20-year, Rs. 1000 Par value, 6% annual pay bond that is currently trading at Rs.
802.07. Calculate the current yield.
Solution:
The annual cash coupon payment total:
Annual cash coupon payment = par value X stated coupon rate = Rs. 1000 X 0.06 = Rs. 60
Since the bond is trading at Rs. 802.07, the current yield is:
Current Yield =

What is the current yield of the 6.5 % August 2005 maturity bond, which has a maturity value of
Rs. 1000. The current bond price is Rs. 1075.3125?
Concept No. 13: Normal Yield or Coupon Yield

When Coupon Rate = Kd/ YTM, Such situation is known as Normal Yield or Coupon Yield.
This situation is possible only when bond is purchased at Par Value and is also redeemable
at Par Value.
B0 = Par Value and Maturity Value = Face Value
Note:
Basis Point: Sometimes interest is expressed in terms of Basis Point
1% = 100 Basis Points
Concept No. 14: YTM (Yield to Maturity) / Kd / Cost of debt/ Market rate of Interest/

Concept No. 24: Confusion regarding Coupon Rate & YTM

YTM Required Return / Investors Expectation
Coupon Rate Rate of Interest paid by the company.
Note 1: YTM is always subjected to change according to Market Conditions.
Note 2: Coupon Rate is always constant throughout the life of the bond and it is not affected by
change in market condition UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFICALLY STATED IN QUESTION.
Example:

Concept No. 30: Relationship between Bond Value & YTM
When the coupon rate on a bond is equal to its market yield, the bond will trade at its par
value.
If yield required in the market subsequently rises, the price of the bond will fall & it will trade
at a discount.
If required yield falls, the bond price will increase and bond will trade at a premium.

proceeds of Rs. 2.91 crores due to a discount of Rs. 30 per bond. The initial floating cost was
Rs. 3,60,000. The company intends to sell Rs. 3 crores of 12% coupon rates, 25 years bonds to
raise funds for retiring the old bonds. It proposes to sell the new bonds at their par value of Rs.
1,000. The estimated floatation cost is Rs. 4,00,000. The company is paying 40% tax and its
after cost of debt is 8%. As the new bonds must first be sold and their proceeds, then used to
retire old bonds, the company expects a two months period of overlapping interest during which
interest must be paid on both the old and new bonds. What is the feasibility of refunding bonds?
Concept No. 44: Bond issued under an open ended scheme

greater than 4
(ii) Net depreciated value of mortgage assets remain twice the amount of the mortgage debt.
(iii) Debt to equity ratio remains below 5.
The HLL has a net income, after taxes of Rs 2 crore and a 40 % tax rate, Rs 40 crore in equity
and Rs 30 crore in depreciated assets, covered by the mortgage. Assuming that 50 % of the

Concept No. 46: Spot Rate

Yield to maturity is a single discount rate that makes the present value of the bonds
promised cash flow equal to its Market Price.
The appropriate discount rates for individual future payments are called Spot Rate.
Discount each cash flow using a discount rate i.e. specific to the maturity of each cash flow.
Example
Consider an annual-pay bond with a 10% coupon rate and three years of maturity. This bond
will make three payments. For a Rs. 1000 bond these payments will be Rs. 100 in one year, Rs.
100 at the end of two years, and Rs.100 three years from now. Suppose we are given the
following spot rates:
1 year = 8%
2 year = 9%
3 year = 10%
Solution:
Discounting each promised payment by its corresponding spot rate, we can value the bond as:

Concept No. 47: Relationship between Forward Rate and Spot Rate
Forward Rate is a borrowing/ landing rate for a loan to be made at some future date.
1f 0 = Spot Rate or Current YTM (rate of 1 year loan)
1f 1 = Rate for a 1 year loan, one year from now
1f 2 = Rate for a 1 year loan to be made two years from now
Relationship:
(1+S1)1
= (1 + 1f0 )
(1+S2)2
Or S2
= (1 + 1f0 ) (1 + 1f1)
= {(1 + 1f0 ) (1 + 1f1)}1/ 2 - 1
(1 + S3)3 = (1+1f0 ) (1+ 1f1 ) (1 + 1f2 )

= {(1 + 1f0 ) (1 + 1f1) (1 + 1f2 )}1/ 3 - 1
Or S3
Crux:
The idea here is that borrowing for three years at the 3-year rate or borrowing for 1 year period,
three year is succession, should have the same cost.

Concept No. 48: Calculation of After-tax yield of a taxable security & taxequivalent yield of a tax-exempt security
After-tax yield = taxable yield (1 marginal tax rate)
CA. Gaurav Jain
31

Taxable-equivalent yield is the yield a particular investor must earn on a taxable bond to
have the same after-tax return they would receive from a particular tax-exempt issue.
Taxable-equivalent yield =
N1H
(16A N )
Example:
Consider a municipal bond that offers a yield of 4.5%. If an investor is considering buying a fully
taxable Government security offering a 6.75% yield, should she buy the Government
security or the municipal bond, given that her marginal tax rate is 35% ?
Solution:
We can approach this problem from two perspectives. First, the taxable equivalent yield on
municipal bond is
bond is preferred.
c.K%
(1.jK)
= 6.92%, which is higher than the taxable yield, so the municipal
Alternatively, the after-tax return on the taxable bond is 0.0675 X (1 0.35) = 4.39%.
Thus, the after-tax return on the municipal bond (4.5%) is greater than the after-tax yield on the
taxable bond (4.39%), and the municipal bond is preferred.
Either approach gives the same answer; She should buy the municipal bond.
Concept No. 49: Re-investment income

Reinvestment income is important because if the reinvestment rate is less than the YTM,
the realized yield on the bond will be less than the YTM.
If a bond holder holds a bond until maturity and reinvests all coupon interest payments at
YTM, the total amount generated by the bond over its life has three components:
(i)
(ii)
(iii)
Bond Principal
Coupon interest
Interest on reinvested coupons
Once we calculate the total amount needed for a particular level of compound return over a
bonds life, we can subtract the principal and coupon payments to determine the amount of
reinvestment income necessary to achieve the target yield.
Example: Calculating required reinvestment income for a bond.
If you purchased a 6%, 10-year Government bond at par, how much reinvestment income must
be generated over its life to provide the investor with a compound return of 6% on a Semi
annual basis?
Solution:
Assuming the bond has par value of Rs. 100, we first calculate the total value that must be
generated ten years (20 semi annual periods) from now as:
P (1+ r)n = 100(1.03)20 = Rs. 180.61
CA. Gaurav Jain
