How to calculate types of bond Yield with examples?


Yield to maturity: The bondholder earn return on bond after a fixed period of time is known as Yield to maturity. There are two ways to calculate yield to maturity first method is:
YTM = C / (1+r) 1 + C / (1+r) 2... + M / (1+r) n
And the second method is:
YTM = (C + ((F – P)/ n)) / F + P / 2
Where,
C = Coupon amount
F = Face value
P = Market price
N = number of years
M = maturity value

Current Yield: It is calculate by annual interest rate and market price of a bond. It does not consider the time value of money and it also doesn’t show the capital gain or loss earn by an investors.

Formula:
Current Yield = Annual interest rate / Market price

Yield to call: It is a right not an obligation of an issuer to call back its bond at a fixed price and on fixed date before the maturity of the bond. The bondholder should keep the bond till the call date. The yield to call is higher than yield to maturity.

Formula:
Yield to call = (Annual coupon amount (Call price – market price) / number of years till call date) / (call price + market price) / 2

Example: Find out the current yield if the bond selling price is Rs.990. The coupon rate is 8% of 10 year bond. The face value of bond is Rs. 1, 000.

Solution: Current Yield = Annual interest rate / Market price
= 80 / 990
= 0.08 or 8%
Example: Mr. X has purchased 5 year bond of Rs. 1, 160. The coupon rate is 7% semi-annually. The par value of bond is Rs. 1, 000. Find out the yield to maturity.

Solution: YTM = (C + ((F – P)/ n)) / F + P / 2
= (35 + ((1, 000 – 1,160)/ 10)) / 1, 000 + 1,160/ 2
= (35 – 16) / 1, 080
= 19 / 1, 080
= 1.75%

Let’s assume r =1.75% in method second:
YTM = C / (1+r) 1 + C / (1+r) 2 +... M / (1+r) n
1, 160 = 35 / (1+r) 1 + 35 / (1+r) 2 + 35 / (1+r) 3 + 35 / (1+r) 4 + 35 / (1+r) 5 + 35 / (1+r) 6 + 35 / (1+r) 7+ 35 / (1+r) 8 + 1, 035 / (1+r) 9 + 1035 / (1+r) 10
= 35 / (1.0175) 1 + 35 / (1.0175) 2 + 35 / (1.0175) 3 + 35 / (1.0175) 4 + 1, 035 / (1.0175) 5 + 35 / (1.0175) 6 + 35 / (1.0175) 7 + 35 / (1.0175) 8 + 35 / (1.0175) 9 + 1, 035 / (1.0175) 10
= 34.398 + 33.81 + 33.238 + 32.655 + 32.092 + 31.540 + 30.998 + 30.466 + 29.942 + 870.186
= 1, 160
= 1,160 – 1,160
= 0
Yield to maturity = 1.75%

Example: An investor purchased a 10 year bond on Rs. 980@ 8.2% annually. But after 2 years bond is call back at the price of Rs.1, 010. Find out the yield to call if the face value of bond is Rs. 1, 000.

Solution: yield to call = (Annual coupon amount + (Call price – market price) / number of years till call date) / (call price + market price) / 2
= (82 + (1, 010 – 980) /2) / (1, 010 +980) / 2
= 82 + 15 / 995
= 97 / 995
= 9.74%

What is Working Capital Leverage (WCL)?

Working capital leverage: It shows the sensitivity of the return on investment with change in current assets. As we all know the working capital is difference between current assets and current liabilities. And the working capital is use for meeting day to day capital requirements in business operations. With the help of working capital leverage we will find out how productivity or profitability of a business is affected by change in current assets. Formula: Working Capital Leverage (WCL) = % ∆ ROE / % ∆ CA Or If % decreases in current assets: WCL= CA / TA - ∆ CA If % increases in current assets: WCL = CA / TA + ∆ CA Where, CA = current assets TA = total assets ROE = return of capital employed or return on investment ∆ CA = change in current assets Example: Company A total assets are Rs. 17, 60, 800 and the current assets are Rs. 6, 00,000. The fixed assets are Rs. 11, 60, 800. Find out the working capital leverage if the current asset increases by 15...
