Bond Features
 What is a bond -

debt issued by a corporation or a governmental body.

A bond represents a loan made by investors to the issuer.

In return for his/her money, the investor receives a legal claim on future cash flows
of the borrower.

 The issuer promises to:



make regular coupon payments (coupon bond) every period until the bond matures,
and

pay the face (par) value of the bond when it matures.

 Default

an issuer who fails to pay is subject to legal action on behalf of the lenders
(bondholders).


**Face value, also referred to as par value or nominal value, is the
value shown on the face of a security certificate, including
currency.

Zero coupon and coupon bond.
Zero coupon: A zero coupon bond is a bond that makes no
periodic interest payments and is sold at a deep discount
from face value. The buyer of the bond receives a return by
the gradual appreciation of the security, which is redeemed
at face value on a specified maturity date.

3
coupon bond
A bond that receives periodical interest. A
coupon or coupon payment is the annual
interest rate paid on a bond, expressed as a
percentage of the face value and paid from
issue date until maturity. Coupons are
usually referred to in terms of the coupon
rate (the sum of coupons paid in a year
divided by the face value of the bond in
question). 4
Bond valuation
Bond valuation is a technique for determining the theoretical fair value of a
particular bond. Bond valuation includes calculating the present value of a bond's
future interest payments, also known as its cash flow, and the bond's value upon
maturity, also known as its face value or par value.

Valuation of Bonds
 First Principles:

Value of financial securities = PV of expected
future cash flows

 To value bonds and stocks we need to:



Estimate future cash flows:
size (how much) and timing (when)

Discount future cash flows at an appropriate
rate

Zero-Coupon Bonds valuation
 Information needed for valuing pure discount bonds:

Time to maturity (T):
T = Maturity date - today’s date

Face value (F)

Discount rate (r)

 Value of a pure discount bond:
Examples – zero coupon Bonds
Q1. Consider a zero-coupon bond, with a face value of $1,000,
maturing in 5 years. Suppose that the appropriate discount rate
is 8%. What is the current value of the bond?
A1. This is a simple TVM problem:
Year: 0 1 2 3 4 5
(r = 8%)
PV0 1,000
Use the above PV equation to solve:
PV = F / (1 + r)T = 1,000 / (1.08)5 = $

Q2. Suppose 6 months have past. What is the bond value now?
A1. Again, use the above PV equation to solve:
PV = F / (1 + r)T = 1,000 / (1.08)4.5 = $
Note: As we get closer to maturity(T), the z.c. bond value increases
(PVm), since we have to wait less time to receive $1,000

Coupon Bonds
The bonds that pay periodical payments.

What Is a Coupon/coupon rate?


A coupon or coupon payment is the annual interest rate paid
on a bond, expressed as a percentage of the face value and
paid from issue date until maturity.

Coupon Bonds
 Information needed to value level-coupon bonds:

Coupon payment dates and Time to maturity (T)

Coupon (C) per payment period and Face value (F)

Discount rate
0 1 2… T
|----------------|------------------|------- … ------|
Coupon Coupon Coupon + F
 Value of a Level-coupon bond:
PV = C/(1+r) + C/(1+r)2 + .. + C/(1+r)T + F/(1+r)T

= PV of coupon payments + PV of face value 10


Example - Coupon Bonds
Q1. Consider a coupon bond paying a 4% coupon rate annually, with a
face value of $1,000, maturing in 10 years. Suppose that
the appropriate discount rate is 6%. What is the current value
of the bond?
A1. The time line:
0 1 2 9 1 (Years)
… 0 (r = 6%)

Define:
c = annual coupon rate (%)
C = dollar periodic coupon payment = c%F
In the above example:
c = % C = c%F = =$
F=$ T= years r= %
