Principles Used in This Chapter

Principle 1: Money Has a Time Value.


Debt securities require that the borrower repay
the lender over time so cash flows have to be
adjusted for time value of money.

Principle 2: There is a Risk-Return


Tradeoff.
The rate used to discount future cash flows
depends on the risk of default by the borrower.

9-5
Principles Used in This Chapter
(cont.)

Principle 3: Cash Flows Are the Source of


Value
Debt securities provide value to the lender
through the interest payments on the
outstanding loan amount and the repayment of
the loan balance itself.

9.1 Overview of
Corporate Debt

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


Corporate Borrowings

There are two main sources of borrowing


for a corporation:

1. Loan from a financial institution (known as


private debt)

2. Bonds (known as public debt since they can


be traded in public financial markets)

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-8
Corporate Borrowings (cont.)

Smaller firms choose to raise money from


banks in the form of loans because of the
high costs associated with issuing bonds.

Larger firms generally raise money from


banks for short-term needs and depend on
the bond market for long-term financing
needs.

9-9
Borrowing Money in the Private
Financial Market

Financial Institutions are an important


source of capital for corporations. The loan
might be used to finance firms day-to-day
operations or it might be used for the
purchase of equipment or property.
Such loans are considered private
market transactions since it only
involves the two parties to the loan.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-10
Borrowing Money in the Private
Financial Market (cont.)

In the private financial market, loans are


typically floating rate loans i.e. the
interest rate is periodically adjusted based
on a specific benchmark rate.

The most popular benchmark rate is the


London Interbank Offered Rate
(LIBOR)

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-11
Borrowing Money in the Private
Financial Market (cont.)

LIBOR is the daily interest rate that is


based on the interest rates at which banks
offer to lend in the London wholesale or
interbank market.

Interbank market is the market where banks


loan each other money.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-12
Borrowing Money in the Private
Financial Market (cont.)

A typical floating rate loan will specify the


following:
The spread or margin between the loan rate
and the benchmark rate expressed as basis
points.
A maximum and a minimum annual rate, to
which the rate can adjust, called the ceiling and
floor.
A maturity date
Collateral

9-13
Borrowing Money in the Private
Financial Market (cont.)

For example, a corporation may get a 1-


year loan with a rate of 300 basis points
(or 3%) over LIBOR with a ceiling of 11%
and a floor of 4%.

Checkpoint 9.1
Calculating the Rate of Interest on a Floating Rate Loan
The Slinger Metal Fabricating Company entered into a loan agreement
with its bank to finance the firms working capital. The loan called for a
floating rate that was 25 basis points (.25%) over an index based on
LIBOR. In addition, the loan adjusted weekly based on the closing
value of the index for the previous week within the bounds of a
maximum annual rate of 2.5% and a minimum of 1.75%. Calculate
the rate of interest for the weeks 2 through 10.

Step 2: Decide on a Solution
Strategy

We have to determine the floating rate for


every week and see if it exceeds the
ceiling or falls below the floor.

Floating rate on Loan


= LIBOR for the previous week + spread of .75%

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-24
Step 2: Decide on a Solution
Strategy

The floating rate on loan cannot exceed


the ceiling rate of 2.5% or drop below the
floor rate of 1.75%.

If the floating rate falls below the floor, the rate


will be reset at the floor rate.
If the floating rate exceeds the ceiling, the rate
will be reset at the ceiling rate.

The table shows the ceiling is violated


during the first week and last two weeks of
the loan period. The floor rate is never
violated.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-27
Step 4: Analyze
The ceiling is the maximum rate charged on the
loan while floor is the minimum rate charged on
the loan. If the ceiling or floor rates are violated,
the loan rate is reset to the ceiling rate or the
floor rate.

If there were no ceiling, the loan rate would have


been 2.73% during the first week of the loan, and
2.63% and 2.68% during the last two weeks of
the loan.

9-28
Borrowing Money in the Public
Financial Market

Firms also raise money by selling debt


securities to individual investors and
financial institutions such as mutual funds.

In order to sell debt securities to the


public, the issuing firm must meet the
legal requirements as specified by the
securities laws.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-29
Borrowing Money in the Public
Financial Market

Corporate bond is a debt security issued


by corporation that has promised future
payments and a maturity date.

If the firm fails to pay the promised future


payments of interest and principal, the
bond trustee can classify the firm as
insolvent and force the firm into
bankruptcy.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-30
Basic Bond Features

The basic features of a bond include the


following:
Bond Indenture
Claims on Assets and Income
Par or Face Value
Coupon Interest Rate
Maturity and Repayment of Principal
Call Provision and Conversion Features

9-32
Bond Ratings and Default Risk

Bond ratings indicate the default risk i.e.


the probability that the firm will make the
promised payments.

Bond ratings affect the rate of return that


lenders require of the firm and the firms
cost of borrowing.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-33
Bond Ratings and Default Risk
(cont.)

Consistent with Principle 2 (There is a


Risk-Return Tradeoff), the lower the bond
rating, the higher the risk of default and
higher the rate of return demanded in the
capital market.

Bond ratings are provided by three rating


agencies Moodys, Standard & Poors,
and Fitch Investor Services.

9.2 Valuing
Corporate Debt

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


Valuing Corporate Debt

The value of corporate debt is equal to the


present value of the contractually
promised principal and interest payments
(the cash flows) discounted back to the
present using the markets required yield.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-37
Valuing Corporate Debt (cont.)

The valuation of corporate debt relies on


the first three basic principles of finance:

Principle 1: Money Has a Time Value.


Principle 2: There is a Risk-Return Tradeoff.
Principle 3: Cash Flows are the Source of
Value.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-38
Step-by-Step: Valuing Bonds by
Discounting Future Cash Flows
Step 1: Determine the amount and timing of
bondholder cash flows. The total cash flows equal
the promised interest payments and principal
payment.

Annual Interest = Par value coupon rate

Example 9.1: The annual interest for a bond with


coupon interest rate of 7% and a par value of
$1,000 is equal to $70, (.07 $1,000 = $70).

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-39
Step-by-Step: Valuing Bonds by
Discounting Future Cash Flows (cont.)

Step 2: Estimate the appropriate discount


rate on a similar risk bond. Discount rate is
the return the bond will yield if it is held to
maturity and all bond payments are made.

Discount rate can be either calculated or


obtained from various sources (such as
Yahoo! Finance).

9-40
Step-by-Step: Valuing Bonds by
Discounting Future Cash Flows (cont.)

Step 3: Calculate the present value of the


bonds interest and principal payments
from Step 1 using the discount rate
estimated in step 2.

9-41
Calculating a Bonds Yield to
Maturity (YTM)

We can think of YTM as the discount rate


that makes the present value of the bonds
promised interest and principal equal to
the bonds observed market price.

9-42
Checkpoint 9.2

Calculating the Yield to Maturity on a Corporate


Bond
Calculate the yield to maturity for the following bond issued by Ford Motor
Company (F) with a price of $744.80, where we assume that interest payments
are made annually at the end of each year and the bond has a maturity of
exactly 11 years.

Checkpoint 9.2: Check Yourself

Calculate the YTM on the Ford bond where


the bond price rises to $900 (holding all
other things equal).

Step 1: Picture the Problem

YTM=?

Years
Cash flow -$900 $65 $65 $65 $1,065

Purchase price = $900


Interest payments = $65 per year for years 1-11
Final payment = $1,000 in year 11 of principal.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-48
Step 2: Decide on a Solution
Strategy

We can use equation 9-2a to find YTM.


YTM is the rate that makes the present
value of all future expected cash flows
equal to the current market price.

We can also solve for YTM using a


calculator and a spreadsheet.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-49
Step 3: Solve

Using Mathematical Equation

It is cumbersome to solve for YTM by hand


using the equation. It is more practical to
use the financial calculator or the spread
sheet.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-50
Step 3: Solve (cont.)

Using Financial Calculator


Enter:
N = 11
I/Y = 7.89
PV = -900
PMT = 65
FV = 1,000

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-51
Step 3: Solve (cont.)

Using an Excel Spreadsheet

YTM = RATE(nper, pmt,pv,fv)


= RATE (11,65,-900,1000)
= 7.89%

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-52
Step 4: Analyze

The yield to maturity on the bond is


7.89%. The yield is higher than the
coupon rate of interest of 6.5%. Since the
coupon rate is lower than the yield to
maturity, the bond is trading at a price
below $1,000. We call this a discount
bond.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-53
Using Market Yield to Maturity Data

Market yield to maturity is regularly


reported by a number of investor services
and is quoted in terms of credit spreads
or spreads to Treasury bonds.

Table 9-4 contains some examples of yield


spreads.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-54
Using Market Yield to Maturity Data
(cont.)

The spread values in table 9-4 represent basis


points over a US Treasury security of the same
maturity as the corporate bond. For example, a
30-year Ba1/BB+ corporate bond has a spread of
275 basis points over a similar 30-year US Treasury
bond.

Thus this corporate bond should earn 2.75% over


the 4.56% earned on treasury yield or 7.31%.

9-56
Promised Returns versus Expected
Yield to Maturity

The yield to maturity calculation assumes


that the bond performs according to the
terms of the bond contract or indenture.
Since corporate bonds are subject to risk
of default, the promised yield to maturity
may not be equal to expected yield to
maturity.

9-57
Promised Returns versus Expected
Yield to Maturity (cont.)

Example 9.2 Consider a one-year bond


that promises a coupon rate of 8% and
has a principal (par value) of $1,000.
Further assume the bond is currently
trading for $850. What is the promised
yield to maturity?

9-58
Promised Returns versus Expected
Yield to Maturity (cont.)

Promised YTM
= {(Interest year 1 + Principal) (Bond Value)} 1

= {($80+$1,000) ($850)} 1

= 27.06%

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-59
Promised Returns versus Expected
Yield to Maturity (cont.)

The yield of 27.06% is based on the


assumption of no default.

Assume there is a 40% probability of


default on this bond and if the bond
defaults, the bondholders will receive only
60% of the principal and interest owed.
What is the expected YTM on this bond?

9-60
Promised Returns versus Expected
Yield to Maturity (cont.)

YTMdefault
= {(Interest year 1 + Principal)} (Bond Value)} 1

= {($80+$1000) .60} ($850)} 1

9-61
Promised Returns versus Expected
Yield to Maturity (cont.)

Checkpoint 9.3
Valuing a Bond Issue
Consider a $1,000 par value bond issued by AT&T (T) with a maturity
date of 2026 and a stated coupon rate of 8.5%. On January 1, 2007, the
bond had 20 years left to maturity, and the markets required yield to
maturity for similar rated debt was 7.5%. If the markets required yield to
maturity on a comparable risk bond is 7.5%, what is the value of the
bond?

9-72
Step 4: Analyze

The value of AT&T bond falls to $954.36


when the yield to maturity for comparable

trading at a discount as the coupon rate on
AT&T bonds is lower than the market yield.

bondholders on a semiannual basis on January 15 and July 15.
On January 1, 2007, the bond had 20 years left to maturity. The

Bond Valuation: Four Key
Relationships (cont.)

Since future interest rates cannot be


predicted, a bond investor is exposed to
the risk of changing values of bonds as
interest rates change.

The risk to the investor that the value of


his or her investment will change is known
as interest rate risk.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-91
Bond Valuation: Four Key
Relationships (cont.)

Second Relationship: The market value of


a bond will be less than its par value if the
yield to maturity is above the coupon
interest rate and will be valued above par
value if the yield to maturity is below the
coupon interest rate.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.

There are two sources of return from bond


investment:
Periodic interest payments
Capital gain or loss when the bond is sold

9-93
Bond Valuation: Four Key
Relationships (cont.)

When a bond can be bought for less than


its par value, it is called discount bond.
For example, buying a $1,000 par value
bond for $950.

Bonds will trade at a discount when the


yield to maturity on the bond exceeds the
coupon rate.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-94
Bond Valuation: Four Key
Relationships (cont.)

When a bond can be bought for more than


its par value, it is called premium bond.
For example, buying a $1,000 par value
bond for $1,110.

Bonds will trade at a premium when the


yield to maturity on the bond is less than
the coupon rate.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-95
Bond Valuation: Four Key
Relationships (cont.)

Third Relationship As the maturity date


approaches, the market value of a bond
approaches its par value.

Regardless of whether the bond was


trading at a discount or at a premium, the
price of bond will converge towards par
value as the maturity date approaches.

Bond Valuation: Four Key
Relationships (cont.)

Fourth Relationship Long term bonds have


greater interest rate risk than short-term
bonds.

While all bonds are affected by a change in


interest rates, long-term bonds are
exposed to greater volatility as interest
rates change.

9.4 Types of
Bonds

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


Types of Bonds

Table 9-7 contains a listing of major types of


long-term debt securities that are sold in the
public financial market.

The differences among the various types of bond


are based on the following bond attributes:
Secured versus Unsecured, Priority of claim,
Initial offering market, Abnormal risk, Coupon
level, Amortizing or non-amortizing, and
Convertibility.

9-102
Types of Bonds (cont.)

Secured versus Unsecured

Secured bonds have specific assets pledged


to support repayment of the bond.
Unsecured bond are referred to as
debentures.
Bonds secured by lien on real property is called
a mortgage bond.

9-103
Types of Bonds (cont.)

Priority of Claim
The priority of claim refers to the order of
repayment when the firms assets are
distributed, as in the case of liquidation.
Secured bonds are paid first followed by
debentures; Among debentures, subordinated
debentures have lower priority than secured
debt and unsubordinated debentures.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-104
Types of Bonds (cont.)

Initial Offering Market

Bonds are classified by where they were


originally issued (in the domestic bond market
or not).
For example, Eurobonds are issued in a
foreign country but are denominated in
domestic currency. For example, a US
corporation issuing bonds in Germany in US
dollars.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-105
Types of Bonds (cont.)

Abnormal Risk

Junk, or high-yield, bonds have a below-


investment grade bond rating. These bonds
have a high risk of default as the firms that
issued these bonds are facing severe financial
problems.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-106
Types of Bonds (cont.)

Coupon Level

Bonds with a zero or very low coupon are


called zero coupon bonds.
These bonds are issued at substantial discounts
from their par value and promise to repay a
zero or very low coupon rate each year. The
par value is repaid at the maturity of the bond.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-107
Types of Bonds (cont.)

Amortizing or Non-Amortizing

The payments from amortizing bonds, like a


home mortgage, include both the interest and
principal.
The payments from a non-amortizing bonds
include only interest. At maturity, the bonds
repay the par value of bond.

9-108
Types of Bonds (cont.)

Convertibility

Convertible bonds are debt securities that can


be converted into a firms stock at a pre-
specified price.

9.5 Determinants
of Interest Rates

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


Determinants of Interest Rates

As we observed earlier, bond prices vary


inversely with interest rates.

Therefore in order to understand bond


pricing we need to know the determinants
of interest rates.

9-112
Real Rate of Interest and the
Inflation Premium

Quotes of interest rates in the financial


press are commonly referred to as the
nominal (or quoted) interest rates.

Real rate of interest adjusts the nominal


rate for the expected effects of inflation.

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-113
Real Rate of Interest and the
Inflation Premium (cont.)

The nominal return or interest rate on a


note or bond can be thought of including
four basic components:

Fisher Effect

The relationship between the nominal rate


of interest, rnominal , the anticipated rate of
inflation, rinflation , and the real rate of
interest is known as the Fisher effect.

Checkpoint 9.5
Solving for the Real Rate of Interest
You have managed to build up your savings over the three years
following your graduation from college to a respectable $10,000 and
are wondering how to invest it. Your banker says they could pay you
5% on your account for the next year. However, you recently saw on
the news that the expected rate of inflation for next year is 3.5%. If
you are earning a 5% annual rate of return but the prices of goods
and services are rising at a rate of 3.5%, just how much additional
buying power would you gain each year? Stated somewhat differently,
what real rate of interest would you earn if you made the investment?

9-120
Checkpoint 9.5: Check Yourself

Assume now that you expect that inflation will be


5% over the coming year and want to analyze how
much better off you will be if you place your
savings in an account that also earns just 5%.
What is the real rate of return in this circumstance?

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-121
Step 1: Picture the Problem

Let us assume that the prices of goods and


services today is $1.00 per unit.
With a 5% inflation, these goods and
services will cost $1.05.
Thus, $10,500 expected in the savings
account at the end of the year will buy you
only 10,000 units (10,500/1.05) at the end
of the year.

Step 2: Decide on a Solution
Strategy

We can estimate the real rate of interest


by using equation 9-4b.

9-124
Step 3: Solve

rreal = {(1+.05) (1+.05)} 1

= 0%

Copyright 2011 Pearson Prentice Hall. All rights reserved.


9-125
Step 4: Analyze

Here the nominal rate of interest is equal


to the expected rate of inflation.
Therefore, the real rate of return is equal
to zero i.e. there is no increase in
purchasing power from investing the
savings at 5%.

Checkpoint 9.6

Solving for the Nominal Rate of Interest


After considering a number of investment opportunities, you
have decided that you should be able to earn a real return of
2% on your $10,000 in savings over the coming year. If the
expected rate of inflation is expected to be 3.5% over the
coming year, what nominal rate of return must you anticipate
in order to earn the 2% real rate of return?

If you anticipate that the rate of inflation will now


be 4% next year, holding all else the same, what
rate of return will you need to earn on your savings
in order to achieve a 2% increase in purchasing
power?

Step 1: Picture the Problem

Let us assume that the prices of goods and


services today is $1.00 per unit.
If the expected rate of inflation is 4% and
you want to be able to purchase 2% more,
you will need to earn a nominal rate of
interest on your savings that will allow you
to buy 10,200 units at $1.04 each.

Here we know the real rate of interest and


the expected rate of inflation.

We can use the Fisher model found in


equation 9-4a to determine the nominal
rate of interest.

9-133
Step 3: Solve

rnominal =.02 + .04 + (.02 .04)

= .0608 or 6.08%

9-134
Step 4: Analyze

In order to achieve a 2% increase in


purchasing power in the face of a 4% rate
of inflation, you must earn a 6.08% rate
on your savings.

Default Premium

In addition to accounting for the time


value of money and inflation, the interest
rate that a firms bonds pay must also
offer a default premium i.e. risk that the
issuer will fail to repay interest and
principal in a timely manner.

Maturity Premium The Term
Structure of Interest Rates

Long-term bonds are more sensitive to


interest rate changes.

Maturity premium is the compensation


that investors demand for bearing interest
rate risk on long-term bonds.

Maturity Premium The Term
Structure of Interest Rates (cont.)

The relationship between interest rates


and time to maturity with risk held
constant is known as the term structure
of interest rates or the yield curve.

Shifts in the Yield Curve

The term structure of interest rates


changes over time as expectations
regarding each of the three factors that
underlie interest rates change.

Figure 9-4 shows the yield curve one day


before 911 attack and again two weeks
later.

Shifts in the Yield Curve (cont.)

We observe a significant shift in the yield


curve in figure 9-4 for short-term interest
rates.

Investors shifted their funds to the safety


of Treasury securities, pushing up the
prices and bringing down the yields.

Shifts in the Yield Curve (cont.)

The yield curve is generally upward sloping


but it can assume different shapes i.e.
downward sloping or flat.
