b) Calculate the yield to maturity in February 2025.
c) If interest rate stabilizes after 2025 and remains same for the reminder of the life of the bonds, what will be the bonds price in 2040, two years before maturity.
d) What is the bond price during maturity (in 2042)?

2) In January 1, 2012, Anim purchased an outstanding Rosette Corporation bond that was issued on January 1, 2010. The Rosette Corporation bond has a 9.5 percent annual coupon and a 30-year original maturity (matures on December 2039). There is a 15-year call protection (until December 2014), after which time the bond can be called at 109 (109 percent of per or at $1090). Interest rates have declined since the bond was issued, and the bond is now selling at 116.575 percent of par or at $1,165.75. Anim wants to determine both the yield to maturity and the yield to call of this bond. (Note: during calculation of yield to call assume that the bond will be outstanding until the call date. Thus the investor will have received interest payments for the call protected period and then will receive the call price- in this case which is $1090 on the call date).
a) What is yield to maturity of the Rosette bond? What is its yield to call?
b) If Anim purchase this bond, which return do you think anim would actually earn? Explain your answer.
c) If the bond had sold at a discount, would the yield to maturity or the yield to call have been more relevant?
