(The attached PDF file has better formatting.)
A firm issues a five year 4% annual coupon 100,000 par value bond on December 31, 20X1. The interest expense on the bond in 20X6 is 4,501. The firm reports under IFRS.
Question 10.1: Interest paid
What is the interest paid in 20X6?
Answer 10.1: 4% × 100,000 = 4,000
(interest paid = par value × coupon rate)
Question 10.2: Accrual of discount or amortization of premium
What is the amortization of premium (accrual of discount) in 20X6?
Answer 10.2: 4,000 – 4,501 = (501)
(amortization of premium = interest paid – interest expense)
Question 10.3: Carrying value
What is the carrying value of the bond on December 31, 20X5?
Answer 10.3: 100,000 – 501 = 99,499
(carrying value at the end of the year = carrying value at the beginning of the year – amortization of premium or + accrual of discount)
Question 10.4: Yield to maturity
What is the yield to maturity on December 31, 20X1?
Answer 10.4: 4,501 / 99,499 = 4.5237%
(yield to maturity (constant in all years) = interest expense / carrying value at the beginning of the year)
Question 10.5: Sale price
What is the sale price of the bond on December 31, 20X1?
Answer 10.5:
4,000 × (1.045237–1 + 1.045237–2 + 1.045237–3 + 1.045237–4) + 104,000 × 1.045237–5 = 97,702.49
(sale price = present value of future cash flows)
