Certificates of Deposit (CD)

– Issued by– Denomination

– Maturity– Liquidity– Default risk– Interest type– Taxation

Depository Institutions

Any, $100,000 or more are marketable

Varies, typically 14 day minimum3 months or less are liquid ( marketable)

financial institutions

Maximum 270 days, usually 1 to 2 months

Minimum $100,000

3 months or less are liquid if marketable

Discount

Interest income is fully taxable

2-6

Bankers Acceptances & Eurodollars

• Bankers Acceptances– Originates when a purchaser of goods authorizes its

bank to pay the seller for the goods at a date in the future (time draft).

– When the purchaser’s bank ‘accepts’ the draft it becomes a contingent liability of the bank and becomes a marketable security.

• Eurodollars– Dollar denominated (time) deposits held outside the

U.S.– Pay a higher interest rate than U.S. deposits.

2-7

Federal Funds and LIBOR• Federal Funds

– Depository institutions must maintain deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank.

– Federal funds represents trading in reserves held on deposit at the Federal Reserve.

– Key interest rate for the economy

• LIBOR (London Interbank Offer Rate)– Rate at which large banks in London (and

elsewhere) lend to each other. – Base rate for many loans and derivatives.

2-8

Repurchase Agreements and Reverses

• Repurchase Agreements (RPs or repos) and Reverse RPs– Short term sales of securities arranged with an

agreement to repurchase the securities a set higher price.

– A RP is a collateralized loan, many are overnight, although “Term” RPs may have a one month maturity.

– A Reverse Repo is lending money and obtaining security title as collateral.

– “Haircuts” may be required depending on collateral quality

2-10

Haircut

• The buyer assumes the collateral as repayment should the seller default. If the collateral has a volatile price history the buyer is at risk.

• To reduce this risk, a haircut is imposed. The haircut is some percentage of the market value the buyer holds back from the cash payment to account for the price volatility as well as counterparty risk.

• Ex. If the haircut is 10% on 10mm market value bonds, the buyer receives 10mm in bonds and the seller receives 9mm in cash. At the end of the repo term, the seller pays the 9mm cash back plus interest and receives the same 10mm bonds back

2-11

Money Market Instruments

• Call Money Rate (later ch 3)– Investors who buy stock on margin borrow money from

their brokers to purchase stock. The borrowing rate is the call money rate.

– The loan may be ‘called in’ by the broker.

2-12

Figure 2.2 Treasury Bills (T-bills)

• Given the above, can you figure out the ask yield? can you calculate bid ask price of the bill?

2-13

Price = $10,000 x [ 1 – T-bill rate x (N/360)]

BID:

$10,000 X [1 - .0120 X (161/360)] = $9,946.33

ASK:

$10,000 X (1 - .01190x(161/360) = $9,946.80.

BEY: Bond-Equivalent Yield• An investor who buys the bill for the asked price

and holds it until maturity will see her investment grow over 161 days by a multiple of

• $10,000/$9,946.80 = 1.00535, or .535%. But this is the return for 161 days only.

• Annualizing this return using a 365-day year results in a yield of .535% X 365/161 = 1.213%.

Capital Market - Fixed Income Instruments

Government Issues

• US Treasury Bonds and Notes– Bonds (10-30 years) versus Notes ( up to

10 years)

– Denomination ($100, mostly $1000)

– Interest type ( semi-annual)

– Risk? Taxation?

Variation: Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS)•Tips have principal adjusted for increases in the Consumer Price Index

2-28


Buy the bond at = 105.6875x 1000 = 1056.875

Coupon = .04 x 1000 = 40

CY = PMT/Price = 40/1056.875 = 3.784%

2-29


Government Issues

• Agency Issues (Fed Gov)– Most are home mortgage related

• Issuers: FNMA, FHLMC, GNMA, Federal Home Loan Banks

– Risk of these securities?• Implied backing by the government• In September 2008, Federal government took

over FNMA and FHLMC.(sup-prime)

2-30


Government Issues

• Municipal Bonds– Issuer? municipalities– Differ from Treasuries and Agencies?

• Risk?o G.O. vs Revenueo Industrial development

• Taxation?

Table 2.3 Equivalent Taxable Yields


2-32

Example

• A municipal bond carries a coupon rate of 6% and is trading at par. What would be the equivalent taxable yield of this bond to a taxpayer in a 35% tax bracket?

• Taxable equivalent yield = .06 / (1-.35) = .0923

2-33

Example

An investor is in a 30% combined federal plus state tax bracket. If corporate bonds offer 9% yields, what must municipals offer for the investor to prefer them to corporate bonds?

[0.09 x (1 – 0.30)] = 0.0630 = 6.30%. Therefore, the municipals must offer at least 6.30% yields.

2-34

Example

• Suppose that short-term municipal bonds (M) currently offer yields of 4%, while comparable taxable bonds (B) pay 5%. Which gives you the higher after-tax yield if your tax bracket is:

• a. Zero B• b. 10% B• c. 20% equal• d. 30% M


2-35

Continue from previous

Find the equivalent taxable yield of the municipal bond in the pervious slide for tax brackets of zero, 10%, 20%, and 30%.

Example

• From Feb 2012:

• How much would you have to pay to purchase one of these bonds? 107:27 = 107.8438% of par = $1,078.438

• What is its coupon rate? $48.75 annually or, $24.375 if

semiannually.• What is the current yield (i.e., coupon income as a fraction of

bond price) of the bond? 48.75/1078.438 = 4.52%

2-37


Private Issues

• Corporate Bonds– Investment grade vs speculative grade

– Risker than Gov bond– Coupon : semi– Callable

2-38


• Mortgage-Backed Securities (read book 34-36)

– Pass-through

• A security backed by a pool of mortgages. The

pool backer ‘passes through’ monthly mortgage

payments made by homeowners and covers

payments from any homeowners that default.

• Collateral:

– Traditionally all mortgages were conforming mortgages

but since 2006, Alt-A and subprime mortgages were

included in pools

2-39


• Mortgage-Backed Securities• Political encouragement to spur affordable

housing led to increase in subprime lending

• Private banks began to purchase and sell pools of subprime mortgages

• Pool issuers assumed housing prices would continue to rise, but they began to fall as far back as 2006 with disastrous results for the markets.

Capital Market - Equity• Common stock (p 36-37)

– Residual claim• Cash flows to common stock?• In the event of bankruptcy, what will

stockholders receive?

– Limited liability• What is the maximum loss on a stock

purchase?

2-43

Capital Market - Equity• Preferred stock

– Fixed dividends: limited gains, non-voting

– Priority over common

– Tax treatment• Preferred & common dividends are not tax

deductible to the issuing firm• Corporate tax exclusion on 70% dividends

earned

2-44

Capital Market - Equity• Depository Receipts

– American Depository Receipts (ADRs) also called American Depository Shares (ADSs) are certificates traded in the U.S. that represent ownership in a foreign security.

2-45

Capital Market - Equity• Capital Gains and Dividend Yields

– You buy a share of stock for $50, hold it for one year, collect a $1.00 dividend and sell the stock for $54. What were your dividend yield, capital gain yield and total return? (Ignore taxes)

– Dividend yield: = Dividend / Pbuy

$1.00 / $50 = 2%

– Capital gain yield: = (Psell – Pbuy)/ Pbuy

($54 - $50) / $50 = 8%

– Total return: = Dividend yield + Capital gain yield

2% + 8% = 10%

Uses• Track average returns• Comparing performance of managers• Base of derivatives

Factors in constructing or using an index• Representative?• Broad or narrow?• How is it constructed?

2.4 Stock and Bond Indexes

2-47

Construction of Indexes• How are stocks weighted?

– Price weighted (DJIA)

– Market-value weighted (S&P500, NASDAQ)

– Equally weighted (Value Line Index)

How much money How much money do you put in each do you put in each stock in the index?stock in the index?

2-48

Constructing market indices

• Indexes can be distinguished in four ways:– The market covered,– The types of stocks included,– How many stocks are included, and– How the index is calculated (price-weighted,

e.g. DJIA, versus value-weighted, e.g. S&P 500).

2-49

Constructing market indices• Price weighted average assumes buy 1 share each stock

and invest cash and stock dividends proportionately. • For a price-weighted index (i.e., the DJIA), higher priced

stocks receive higher weights.• Value weighted: considers not only price but also # shares :

– $ invested in each stock are proportional to market value of each stock

– For a value-weighted index (i.e., the S&P 500), companies with larger market values have higher weights.

• Equal weighted: considers not only price but also # shares:– invest same amount of $ in each stock regardless of

market value of stock

2-50

Example Price weighted

• Three stocks have share prices of $12, $75, and $30 with total market values of $400 million, $350 million and $150 million respectively. If you were to construct a price-weighted index of the three stocks what would be the index value?

• Index = (12 + 75 + 30)/3 = 39

Examples :Price weighted• An index consists of the following securities and has an

index divisor of 3.0. What is the price- weighted index return?

Price-weighted index = {[($19 + $11 + $33)/3] - [($17 + $14 + $26)/3]} / [($17+ $14 + $26)/3]

= 10.53 %

2-63

Examples :Price weighted• An index consists of the following securities and has an

index divisor of 2.0. What is the price- weighted index return?

• Price-weighted index = • {[($51 + $36)/2] - [($54 + $33)/2]}/[($54 + $33)/2] = 0

percent

2-64

Example

• A price-weighted index consists of stocks A, B, and C which are priced at $38, $21, and $26 a share, respectively. The current index divisor is 2.7. What will the new index divisor be if stock B undergoes a 3-for-1 stock split? (38 + 21 + 26)/2.7 = 31.48

• [38 + (21/3) + 26]/x = 31.48

• x = 2.2553

2-65

Example

• A price-weighted index consists of stocks A, B, and C which are priced at $27, $11, and $18 a share, respectively. The current index divisor is 2.24. If stock B undergoes a 1-for-3 reverse stock split, the new index divisor will be:

• = [(27 + 11 + 18)/2.24] = 25• [27 + (11 3) + 18]/x = 25• x = 3.12

2-66

P-weight

• You have the following information:

•

You want the beginning price-weighted index of these two stocks to be 100. Given this, what is the ending index value?

• Beginning price-weighted index = [(35 + 22)/(35 + 22)] 100 = 100Ending price-weighted index = [(38 + 23)/(35 + 22)] 100 = 107.02

Value weighted

Computed by calculating a weighted average of the returns of each security in the index, with weights proportional to outstanding market value.

2-68

V-Weight

• An index consists of the following securities. What is the value-weighted index return?

• Beginning value = (5,000 21) + (2,000 39) = 183,000Ending value = (5,000 27) + (2,000 42) = 219,000Return = (219,000 - 183,000)/183,000 = 19.67 percent

Example

• Suppose you buy an April expiration call option with exercise price 105.

• a. If the stock price in April is $111, will you exercise your call? What are the profit and rate of return on your position?

As long as the stock price at expiration exceeds the exercise price, it makes sense to exercise the call.

Gross profit is: $111 - $ 105 = $6

Net profit = $6 – $ 22.40 = $16.40 loss

Rate of return = -16.40 / 22.40 = - .7321 or 73.21% loss

• c. What if you had bought an April put with exercise price 105?

• c. What if you had bought an April put with exercise price 105?

– A put with exercise price $105 would expire worthless for any stock price equal to or greater than $105. An investor in such a put would have a rate of return over the holding period of –100%.

• (Pretax rate or return = ____________ )• The total before-tax income is $4. After the 70% exclusion, taxable

income is:• 0.30 $4 = $1.20 taxable income• Therefore Taxes owed are Tax rate taxable income• Taxes = 0.30 $1.20 = $0.36• After-tax income = $4 – $0.36 = $3.64• After-tax rate of return = $3.64 / $40 = 9.10%

$4 / $40 = 10%

2. a) Using the quote find GD’s closing price the day before the quote appeared

The closing price is $94.80, which is $1.14 higher than yesterday’s price. Therefore, yesterday’s closing price was: $94.80 – $1.14 = $93.66

b) How many shares could you buy for $5000?

You could buy: $5,000/$94.80 = 52.74 shares

c) Total annual dividend income from the __ shares?

$1.44 * 52 = $74.88

d) What are EPS? (Approximate)

P / (P/E) = EPS = $94.80 / 18 = $5.27
