presidents of Mutual of Seattle Insurance Company and co-direct

or

s of the company’s pension fund management division. A major new client, the

N

orthwestern Municipal Alliance, has requested that Mutual of Seattle present an investment seminar to the mayors of the represented cities, and Strother and Tibbs, who will make the actual presentation, have asked you to help them by answering the following questions. Because the Boeing Company operates in one of the league’s cities, you are to work Boeing into the presentation.

a. What are the key features of a bond? The key features of a bond are, Par or face value,

Coupon rate

,

Maturity

,

Issue date

and default risk

b. What are call provisions and sinking fund provisions? Do these provisions make bonds more or less risky? A call provision is a provision in a bond contract that gives the issuing corporation the right to redeem the bonds under specified terms prior to the normal maturity date. A sinking fund provision is a provision in a bond contract that requires the issuer to retire a portion of the bond issue each year. A sinking fund provision facilitates the orderly retirement of the bond issue. The call provisions is potentially detrimental to the investor especially if the bonds were issued in a period when interest rates were cyclically high so therefore, bonds with a call provision are riskier than those without a call provision . Call Provisions and Sinking Funds A call provision that allows the issuer to redeem the bond at a specified time before the maturity date. If interest rates fall, the issuer can refund the bonds and issue new bonds at a lower rate. Because of this, borrowers are willing to pay more and lenders require more on callable bonds. In a sinking fund provision, the issuer pays off the loan over its life rather than all at the maturity date. A sinking fund reduces the risk to the investor and shortens the maturity. This is not good for investors if rates fall after issuance. c. How is the value of any asset whose value is based on expected future cash flows determined? The value of an asset is just the present value of its expected future cash flows. d. How is the value of a bond determined? What is the value of a

Going rate, r

d: 10% The easiest way to solve this problem is to use Excel’s PV function. Click fx, then financial, then PV. Then fill in the menu items as shown in our snapshot in the screen shown just below. Value of bond = $

1,000.00 Thus, this bond sells at its par value. That situation always exists if the going rate is equal to the coupon rate. The PV function can only be used if the payments are constant, but that is normally the case for bonds. e. (1.) What would be the value of the bond described in Part d if, just after it had been issued, the expected inflation rate rose by

3

percentage points, causing investors to require a

13

percent return? Would we now have a discount or a premium bond? We could simply go to the input data section shown above, change the value for r from 10% to

13%

. You can set up a data table to show the bond’s value at a range of rates, i.e., to show the bond’s sensitivity to changes in interest rates. This is done below. To make the data table, first type the headings, then type the rates in cells in the left column. Since the input values are listed down a column, type the formula in the row above the first value and one cell to the right of the column of values (this is B

7

3; note that the formula in B73 actually just refers to the bond pricing formula above in B

6

0). Select the range of cells that contains the formulas and values you want to substitute (A73:B7

8

). Then click Data, What-If-Analysis, and then Data Table to get the menu. The input data are in a column, so put the cursor on “column input cell” and enter the cell with the value for r (B37), then Click OK to complete the operation and get the table. Bond Value Going rate, r:

What would happen to the value of the 10-year bond over time if the required rate of return remained at 13 percent, or if it remained at 7 percent? Would we now have a premium or a discount bond in either situation? You pick a rate. Value of Bond in Given Year: N 7% 10% 13%

If rates fall, the bond goes to a premium, but it moves towards par as maturity approaches. The reverse hold if rates rise and the bond sells at a discount. If the going rate remains equal to the coupon rate, the bond will continue to sell at par. Note that the above graph assumes that interest rates stay constant after the initial change. That is most unlikely–interest rates fluctuate, and so do the prices of outstanding bonds. Yield

to Maturity (

YTM

)

f. (1.) What is the yield to maturity on a 10-year, 9 percent annual coupon, $1,000 par value bond that sells for

$887.00

? That sells for $1,134.20? What does the fact that a bond sells at a discount or at a premium tell you about the relationship between rd and the bond’s coupon rate? What is the yield-to-maturity of the bond? Use the

Rate

function to solve the problem.

(2.) What are the total return, the current yield, and the capital gains yield for the discount bond? (Assume the bond is held to maturity and the company does not default on the bond.) Current and

Capital Gains Yield

s The current yield is the annual interest payment divided by the bond’s current price. The current yield provides information regarding the amount of cash income that a bond will generate in a given year. However, it does not account for any capital gains or losses that will be realized if the bond is held to maturity or call. Simply divide the annual interest payment by the price of the bond. Even if the bond made semiannual payments, we would still use the annual interest. Par value $1,000.00
Coupon rate: 9%

Current Yield

= 10.1

5% Annual Pmt: $90.00

Current price: $887.00

YTM: 10.91%
The current yield provides information on a bond’s cash return, but it gives no indication of the bond’s total return. To see this, consider a zero coupon bond. Since zeros pay no coupon, the current yield is zero because there is no interest income. However, the zero appreciates through time, and its total return clearly exceeds zero. YTM =

6% g. How does the equation for valuing a bond change if semiannual payments are made? Find the value of a 10-year, semiannual payment, 10 percent coupon bond if nominal rd = 13%. Bonds with Semiannual Coupons Since most bonds pay interest semiannually, we now look at the valuation of semiannual bonds. We must make three modifications to our original valuation model: (1) divide the coupon payment by 2, (2) multiply the years to maturity by 2, and (3) divide the nominal interest rate by 2. Use the Rate function with adjusted data to solve the problem. Periods to maturity = 10*2 = 20
Christopher Buzzard: N=20, because of semi-annual compounding (10*2 =

30

). Coupon rate: 10%
Semiannual pmt = $100/2 = $50.00

Bart Kreps: PMT=$50, because of semiannual payments
(100 ÷ 2) = 50 PV = $834.72 Future Value:

$1,000.00
Periodic rate = 13%/2 = 6.5%
Christopher Buzzard: I=6.5%, because of semi-annual compounding (13%/2 = 6.5%). Note that the bond is now more valuable, because interest payments come in faster. Excel Bond Functions Supose today’s date is January 1, 2013, and the bond matures on December 31, 20

7.81% h. Suppose a 10-year, 10 percent, semiannual coupon bond with a par value of $1,000 is currently selling for

$1,135.90

, producing a nominal yield to maturity of 8 percent. However, the bond can be called after 5 years for a price of $1,050. (1.) What is the bond’s nominal yield to call (YTC)? (2.) If you bought this bond, do you think you would be more likely to earn the YTM or the YTC? Why? Yield to Call The yield to call is the rate of return investors will receive if their bonds are called. If the issuer has the right to call the bonds, and if interest rates fall, then it would be logical for the issuer to call the bonds and replace them with new bonds that carry a lower coupon. The yield to call (YTC) is found similarly to the YTM. The same formula is used, but years to maturity is replaced with years to call, and the maturity value is replaced with the call price.

Use the Rate function to solve the problem.

i. Write a general expression for the yield on any debt security (rd) and define these terms: real risk-free rate of interest (r*), inflation premium (IP), default risk premium (DRP), liquidity premium (LP), and maturity risk premium (MRP). j. Define the nominal risk-free rate (rRF). What security can be used as an estimate of rRF? k. Describe a way to estimate the inflation premium (IP) for a T-Year bond. l. What is a bond spread and how is it related to the default risk premium? How are bond ratings related to default risk? What factors affect a company’s bond rating? m. What is interest rate (or price) risk? Which bond has more interest rate risk, an annual payment 1-year bond or a 30-year bond? Why?

Interest Rate

Risk is the risk of a decline in a bond’s price due to an increase in interest rates.

Price

sensitivity to interest rates is greater (1) the longer the maturity and (2) the smaller the coupon payment. Thus, if two bonds have the same coupon, the bond with the longer maturity will have more interest rate sensitivity, and if two bonds have the same maturity, the one with the smaller coupon payment will have more interest rate sensitivity.

n. What is reinvestment rate risk? Which has more reinvestment rate risk, a 1-year bond or a 10-year bond? o. How are interest rate risk and reinvestment rate risk related to the maturity risk premium? p. What is the term structure of interest rates? What is a yield curve? The term structure describes the relationship between long-term and short-term interest rates. Graphically, this relationship can be shown in what is known as the yield curve. See the hypothetical curve below. Hypothetical Inputs See to right for actual date used in graph. Suppose most investors expect the inflation rate to be 5 percent next year, 6 percent the following year, and 8 percent

thereafter.

The real risk-free rate is 3 percent. The maturity risk premium is zero for securities that mature in 1 year or less, 0.1 percent for 2-year securities, and then the MRP increases by 0.1 percent per year thereafter for 20 years, after which it is stable.

f. You have just learned that B&M has undertaken a major expansion that will change its expected free cash flows to −$10 million in 1 year, $20 million in 2 years, and $35 million in 3 years. After 3 years, free cash flow will grow at a rate of 5%. No new debt or preferred stock were added, the investment was financed by equity from the owners. Assume the WACC is unchanged at 11% and it that there are still has 10 million shares of stock outstanding. (1.) What is its horizon value (i.e., its value of operations at year three)?

j. What is the horizon value at Year 4? What is the value of operations at Year 4? Which is larger, and what can explain the difference? What is the value of operations at Year 0? How does the value of operations compare with the current total net operating capital? Horizon Value: =

$1,260.65 Value of Operations: Present value of HV $893.08 + Present value of FCF $64.450 Value of operations ≈ $958 The value of operations is less than the total net operating capital because the ROIC is too low when compared to the WACC. ROIC must be greater than WACC/(1+gL) before the horizon value exceeds the total net operating capital. ROIC needed to make HV greater than Vop at horizon: ROIC

= WACC/(1+gL) ROIC at horizon = 8.04%

< 8.57%

Notice that small changes in ROIC and growth cause large changes in value. b. (1.) Write out a formula that can be used to value any dividend-paying stock, regardless of its dividend pattern. The value of any financial asset is equal to the present value of future cash flows provided by the asset. When an investor buys a share of stock, he or she typically expects to receive cash in the form of dividends and then, eventually, to sell the stock and to receive cash from the sale. Moreover, the price any investor receives is dependent upon the dividends the next investor expects to earn, and so on for different generations of investors. Thus, the stock’s value ultimately depends on the cash dividends the company is expected to provide and the discount rate used to find the present value of those dividends. Here is the basic dividend valuation equation: D1

+

D2

+

. . . . DN ( 1

+

rs ) ( 1 + rs ) 2 ( 1 + rs ) N The dividend stream theoretically extends on out forever, i.e., n = infinity. Obviously, it would not be feasible to deal with an infinite stream of dividends, but fortunately, an equation has been developed that can be used to find the PV of the dividend stream, provided it is growing at a constant rate. Naturally, trying to estimate an infinite series of dividends and interest rates forever would be a tremendously difficult task. Now, we are charged with the purpose of finding a valuation model that is easier to predict and construct. That simplification comes in the form of valuing stocks on the premise that they have a constant growth rate. (2.) What is a constant growth stock? How are constant growth stocks valued? In this stock valuation model, we first assume that the dividend and stock will grow forever at a constant growth rate. Naturally, assuming a constant growth rate for the rest of eternity is a rather bold statement. However, considering the implications of imperfect information, information asymmetry, and general uncertainty, perhaps our assumption of constant growth is reasonable. It is reasonable to guess that a given firm will experience ups and downs throughout its life. By assuming constant growth, we are trying to find the average of the good times and the bad times, and we assume that we will see both scenarios over the firm’s life. In addition to assuming a constant growth rate, we will be estimating a long-term required return for the stock. By assuming these variables are constant, our price equation for common stock simplifies to the following expression: D1
( rs – gL ) In this equation, the long-run growth rate (g) can be approximated by multiplying the firm’s return on assets by the retention ratio. Generally speaking, the long-run growth rate of a firm is likely to fall between 5% and 8% a year. (c.) What happens if a company has a constant gL which exceeds rs? Will many stocks have expected growth greater than the required rate of return in the short run (i.e., for the next few years)? In the long run (i.e., forever)? o. Assume that Temp Force has a beta coefficient of 1.2, that the risk-free rate (the yield on T-bonds) is 7.0%, and that the market risk premium is 5%. What is the required rate of return on the firm’s stock? CAPM = rRF + b (rRF – rM) 7% + 1.2(5%) =

13% p. Assume that Temp Force is a constant growth company whose last dividend (D0, which was paid yesterday) was

$2.00

and whose dividend is expected to grow indefinitely at a 6% rate. (1.) What is the firm’s current stock price? (2.) What is the stock’s expected value 1 year from now? (3.) What are the expected dividend yield, the capital gains yield, and the total return during the first year? Constant Growth Model:

r. Now assume that Temp Force’s dividend is expected to experience nonconstant growth of

30%

from Year 0 to Year 1,

25%

from Year 1 to Year 2, and

15%

from Year 2 to Year 3. After Year 3, dividends will grow at a constant rate of 6%. What is the stock’s intrinsic value under these conditions? What are the expected dividend yield and capital gains yield during the first year? What are the expected dividend yield and capital gains yield during the fourth year (from Year 3 to Year 4)? For many companies, it is unreasonable to assume that it grows at a constant growth rate. Hence, valuation for these companies proves a little more complicated. The valuation process, in this case, requires us to estimate the short-run non-constant growth rate and predict future dividends. Then, we must estimate a constant long-term growth rate at which the firm is expected to grow. Generally, we assume that after a certain point of time, all firms begin to grow at a rather constant rate. Of course, the difficulty in this framework is estimating the short-term growth rate, how long the short-term growth will hold, and the long-term growth rate. Specifically, we will predict as many future dividends as we can and discount them back to the present. Then we will treat all dividends to be received after the convention of constant growth rate with the Gordon constant growth model described above. The point in time when the dividend begins to grow at a constant rate is called the horizon date. When we calculate the constant growth dividends, we solve for a horizon value (also called the terminal value or continuing value) as of the horizon date. We can then find the present value of the dividends in the forecast period and the present value of the horizon value, which gives the current estimated stock price.
