Estimating Inflation Premium (IP)
Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities(TIPS) are indexed to inflation.
IP for a particular length maturity canbe approximated as the differencebetween the yield on a non-indexed
Treasury security of that maturity minusthe yield on a TIPS of that maturity.

Bond Spreads, the DRP, and
the LP A bond spread is often calculated as the
difference between a corporate bonds yield
and a Treasury securitys yield of the samematurity. Therefore:
Spread = DRP + LP.
Bonds of large, strong companies often have
very small LPs. Bonds of small companiesoften have LPs as high as 2%.

Computing Yields
Estimate the inflation premium (IP) foreach future year. This is the estimated
average inflation over that time period. Step 2: Estimate the maturity risk
premium (MRP) for each future year.
17
7/28/2019 Bonds Solution
18/81
Assume investors expect inflation to be 5% next
year, 6% the following year, and 8% per year
thereafter.
Step 1: Find the average expected
inflation rate over years 1 to n:
IP1 = 5%/1.0 = 5.00%.
IP10 = [5 + 6 + 8(8)]/10 = 7.5%.
IP20 = [5 + 6 + 8(18)]/20 = 7.75%.Must earn these IPs to break even versus inflation; thatis, these IPs would permit you to earn r* (beforetaxes).
18
7/28/2019 Bonds Solution
19/81
Step 2: Find MRP based onthis equation:
MRPt = 0.1%(t - 1).
MRP1 = 0.1% x 0 = 0.0%.
MRP10= 0.1% x 9 = 0.9%.
MRP20= 0.1% x 19 = 1.9%.
Assume the MRP is zero for Year 1 and
increases by 0.1% each year.
7/28/2019 Bonds Solution
20/81
Step 3: Add the IPs and MRPs to r*:
rRFt = r* + IPt + MRPt .
rRF = Quoted market interestrate on treasury securities.
Assume r* = 3%:
rRF1 = 3% + 5% + 0.0% = 8.0%.rRF10 = 3% + 7.5% + 0.9% = 11.4%.
rRF20 = 3% + 7.75% + 1.9% = 12.65%.

Due to the recession, the rate of inflation expectedfor the coming year is only 3.5%. However, the
rate of inflation in Yr 2 and thereafter is expected tobe constant at some level above 3.5%. Assume thereal risk-free rate (r*) = 2% for all maturities, andthere are no maturity premiums. If 3-year T-Bonds
yield 3% (0.03) more than the 1-year T-Bonds,what rate of inflation is expected after year 1?

If you bought bonds, would you bemore likely to earn YTM or YTC?
Coupon rate = 10% vs. YTC = rd =7.53%. Could raise money by selling
new bonds which pay 7.53%. Could thus replace bonds which pay
$100/year with bonds that pay only$75.30/year.
Investors should expect a call, henceYTC = 7.53%, not YTM = 8%.

Investor returns on callablebonds
In general, if a bond sells at a premium,then coupon > market rate, so a call is
likely. So, investors expect to earn:
YTC on premium bonds.
YTM on par & discount bonds.

What is reinvestment raterisk?
The risk that CFs will have to bereinvested at future lower rates,
reducing income. Illustration: Suppose you just won
$500,000 playing the lottery. Youll
invest the money and live off interest.You buy a 1-year bond with a YTM of10%.
7/28/2019 Bonds Solution
73/81
73
Year 1 income = $50,000. At year-endget back $500,000 to reinvest.
If rates fall to 3%, income will dropfrom $50,000 to $15,000. Had youbought 30-year bonds, income would
have remained constant.
7/28/2019 Bonds Solution
74/81
74
The Maturity Risk Premium
Long-term bonds: High interest rate risk, lowreinvestment rate risk.
Short-term bonds: Low interest rate risk,high reinvestment rate risk.
Nothing is riskless!
Yields on longer term bonds usually are
greater than on shorter term bonds, so theMRP is more affected by interest rate riskthan by reinvestment rate risk.

Typically, company wants Chapter 11,
creditors may prefer Chapter 7.

If company cant meet its obligations, it filesunder Chapter 11. That stops creditors fromforeclosing, taking assets, and shutting downthe business.

Management usually stays in control.
