    Hello,

    Tutor, can you please explain, after incurring issue cost (compound instrument) why does the ”effective rate of interest” increases?

    5 year bond, does not pay interest.

    Issued at 100 and redeemed at 120. Finance cost of 20 must be spread over 5 years.

    BUT if issue costs were 5, bond would effectively be issued at 95 (company receives 100 but has to give 5 to arranging bank). So now 25 finance cost must be spread over 5 years. SO IRR WILL BE HIGHER.

    Would it be fine if I say I didn’t get it clearly? Can you please rephrase it a bit?
