    I know it is not being asked in the exam (as you said in the lecture) but I was curious that how would we calculate interest yield on this on premium.

    For eg:
    If 8% Bond 2020 – repayable at a premium of 10% are currently quoted at 80

    We know that we will be getting $8 interest p.a. BUT we also get $110 premium at the repayment date. So what is the overall return to investors?

    I hope you would not mind answering this question. Thanks for your time 🙂

    The interest yield ignore the redemption and is 8/80 = 10%.

    The redemption yield is the overall return taking into account both the interest and the redemption and is the IRR of the flows.

    ——————————-Time—–Cashflows—–DF (10%)—-PV——-DF (15%)——PV
    Market Value—————-0———–(80)———–1————-(80)——–1—————(80)
    Interest Paid————–1 – 10———8———–6.145———-49——-5.019————40
    Redeem at Premium—–10———-110———0.386———–42——-0.247————27

    NPV———————————————————————–12————————-(13)

    Cost of Debt calculated through IRR = 12.4%

    Is this correct?

    That is the redemption yield (the return to the investors).

    (It is not the cost of debt to the company. For the cost of debt you use the after-tax interest.)
