1、CHAPTER 2: ASSET CLASSES ANDFINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS1. (d)2.The equivalent taxable yield is: 6.75%/(1 - 0.34) = 10.23%3.(a)Writing a call entails unlimited potential losses as the stock price rises.4.a.You would have to pay the asked price of:94:30 = 94.9375% of par = $949.375b.The coupon rate is 3.625
2、% implying coupon payments of $36.25 annually or, more precisely, $18.125 semiannually.c. Current yield = (Annual coupon income/price) = $36.25/$949.375 = 0.0382 = 3.82%5.Preferred stock is like long-term debt in that it typically promises a fixed payment each year. In this way, it is a perpetuity.
3、Preferred stock is also like long-term debt in that it does not give the holder voting rights in the firm.Preferred stock is like equity in that the firm is under no contractual obligation to make the preferred stock dividend payments. Failure to make payments does not set off corporate bankruptcy.
4、With respect to the priority of claims to the assets of the firm in the event of corporate bankruptcy, preferred stock has a higher priority than common equity but a lower priority than bonds.6.Money market securities are called “cash equivalents” because of their great liquidity. The prices of mone
5、y market securities are very stable, and they can be converted to cash (i.e., sold) on very short notice and with very low transaction costs.7.P = $10,000/1.02 = $9,803.928.The total before-tax income is $4. After the 70% exclusion for preferred stock dividends, the taxable income is: 0.30 $4 = $1.2
6、0Therefore, taxes are: 0.30 $1.20 = $0.36After-tax income is: $4.00 $0.36 = $3.64Rate of return is: $3.64/$40.00 = 9.10%9.a.General Dynamics closed today at $112.65, which was $1.56 higher than yesterdays price. Yesterdays closing price was: $111.09b.You could buy: $5,000/$112.65 = 44.4 sharesc.Your
7、 annual dividend income would be: 44.4 $1.60 = $71.04d.The price-to-earnings ratio is 16 and the price is $112.65. Therefore:$112.65/Earnings per share = 16 Earnings per share = $7.0410.a.At t = 0, the value of the index is: (90 + 50 + 100)/3 = 80At t = 1, the value of the index is: (95 + 45 + 110)/
8、3 = 83.333The rate of return is: (83.333/80) - 1 = 4.17%b. In the absence of a split, Stock C would sell for 110, so the value of the index would be: 250/3 = 83.333After the split, Stock C sells for 55. Therefore, we need to find the divisor (d) such that:83.333 = (95 + 45 + 55)/d d = 2.340c.The ret
9、urn is zero. The index remains unchanged because the return for each stock separately equals zero.11.a.Total market value at t = 0 is: ($9,000 + $10,000 + $20,000) = $39,000Total market value at t = 1 is: ($9,500 + $9,000 + $22,000) = $40,500Rate of return = ($40,500/$39,000) 1 = 3.85%b. The return
10、on each stock is as follows:rA = (95/90) 1 = 0.0556rB = (45/50) 1 = 0.10rC = (110/100) 1 = 0.10The equally-weighted average is:0.0556 + (-0.10) + 0.10/3 = 0.0185 = 1.85%12.The after-tax yield on the corporate bonds is: 0.09 (1 0.30) = 0.0630 = 6.30%Therefore, municipals must offer at least 6.30% yie
11、lds.13.a.The taxable bond. With a zero tax bracket, the after-tax yield for the taxable bond is the same as the before-tax yield (5%), which is greater than the yield on the municipal bond.b. The taxable bond. The after-tax yield for the taxable bond is:0.05 (1 0.10) = 4.5%c. You are indifferent. Th
12、e after-tax yield for the taxable bond is:0.05 (1 0.20) = 4.0%The after-tax yield is the same as that of the municipal bond.d.The municipal bond offers the higher after-tax yield for investors in tax brackets above 20%.14.Equation (2.5) shows that the equivalent taxable yield is: r = rm /(1 t)a.4.00
13、%b.4.44%c.5.00%d.5.71%15. If the after-tax yields are equal, then: 0.056 = 0.08 (1 t)This implies that t = 0.30 =30%.16.a.The higher coupon bond.b.The call with the lower exercise price.c.The put on the lower priced stock.17.a.You bought the contract when the futures price was 1687.00 (see Figure 2.
14、12). The contract closes at a price of 1700, which is 13.0 higher than the original futures price. The contract multiplier is $100. Therefore, the profit will be:13.0 $100 = $1,300b.Open interest is 47,990 contracts.18.a.Since the stock price exceeds the exercise price, you will exercise the call.Th
15、e payoff on the option will be: $37 - $35 = $2The option originally cost $1.97, so the profit is: $2.00 - $1.97 = $0.03Rate of return = $0.03/$1.97 = 0.0152 = 1.52%b.If the exercise price were $32.50, you would exercise the call.The payoff on the option will be: $37.00 $32.50 = $4.50The option originally cost $3.70 so the profit is: $4.50 $3.70 = $0.80Rate of return = $0.80/$3.70 = 0.2162 = 21.62%c.If the put has an exercise price of $35, you would not exercise for any stock price of $35 or above. The loss on the put would be the initial cost,
