LOS b: State the various forms of investment returns.

An investor buys a 6% coupon 5-year corporate bond priced to yield 7%. If rates remain unchanged when the investor sells the bond in 2 years, the investor will receive a:

A)
capital loss.
B)
capital gain.
C)
total return equal to the coupon yield.



Current yield of a bond = coupon payment / market price of bond. Bonds with a coupon lower than the prevailing interest rate will trade at a discount to par. If interest rates remain the same as the bond nears maturity the price will increase towards its par value. Thus, when they are sold, the investor will receive a capital gain.
