  • Calculating Interest Rates
    Calculating interest rates A reading prepared by Pamela Peterson Drake O U T L I N E 1. Introduction 2. Annual percentage rate 3. Effective annual rate 1. Introduction The basis of the time value of money is that an investor is compensated for the time value of money and risk. Situations arise often in which we wish to determine the interest rate that is implied from an advertised, or stated rate. There are also cases in which we wish to determine the rate of interest implied from a set of payments in a loan arrangement. 2. The annual percentage rate A common problem in finance is comparing alternative financing or investment opportunities when the interest rates are specified in a way that makes it difficult to compare terms. One lending source 1 may offer terms that specify 9 /4 percent annual interest with interest compounded annually, whereas another lending source may offer terms of 9 percent interest with interest compounded continuously. How do you begin to compare these rates to determine which is a lower cost of borrowing? Ideally, we would like to translate these interest rates into some comparable form. One obvious way to represent rates stated in various time intervals on a common basis is to express them in the same unit of time -- so we annualize them. The annualized rate is the product of the stated rate of interest per compounding period and the number of compounding periods in a year. Let i be the rate of interest per period and let n be the number of compounding periods in a year.

  • HIGH YIELD OR “JUNK' BONDS, HAVEN OR HORROR by Mason A
    HIGH YIELD OR “JUNK’ BONDS, HAVEN OR HORROR By Mason A. Dinehart III, RFC A high yield, or “junk” bond is a bond issued by a company that is considered to be a higher credit risk. The credit rating of a high yield bond is considered “speculative” grade or below “investment grade”. This means that the chance of default with high yield bonds is higher than for other bonds. Their higher credit risk means that “junk” bond yields are higher than bonds of better credit quality. Studies have demonstrated that portfolios of high yield bonds have higher returns than other bond portfolios, suggesting that the higher yields more than compensate for their additional default risk. It should be noted that “unrated” bonds are legally in the “junk” category and may or may not be speculative in terms of credit quality. High yield or “junk” bonds get their name from their characteristics. As credit ratings were developed for bonds, the credit agencies created a grading system to reflect the relative credit quality of bond issuers. The highest quality bonds are “AAA” and the credit scale descends to “C” and finally to “D” or default category. Bonds considered to have an acceptable risk of default are “investment grade” and encompass “BBB” bonds (Standard & Poors) or “Baa” bonds (Moody’s) and higher. Bonds “BB” and lower are called “speculative grade” and have a higher risk of default. Rulemakers soon began to use this demarcation to establish investment policies for financial institutions, and government regulation has adopted these standards. Since most investors were restricted to investment grade bonds, speculative grade bonds soon developed negative connotations and were not widely held in investment portfolios.

  • Understanding Alpha Versus Beta in High Yield Bond Investing
    PERITUS ASSET MANAGEMENT, LLC Market Commentary Independent Credit Research – Leveraged Finance – July 2012 Understanding Alpha versus Beta in High Yield Bond Investing Investors have come to recognize that there is a secular change occurring in financial markets. After the 2008 meltdown, we have watched equities stage an impressive rally off the bottom, only to peter out. There is no conviction and valuations are once again stretched given the lack of growth as the world economy remains on shaky ground. In another one of our writings (“High Yield Bonds versus Equities”), we discussed our belief that U.S. businesses would plod along, but valuations would continue their march toward the lower end of their historical range. So far, this looks like the correct call. Europe still hasn’t been fixed, the China miracle is slowing and, perhaps, the commodity supercycle is also in the later innings. The amount of debt assumed by the developed world is unsustainable so deleveraging began a few years ago. These are not short or pleasant cycles and both governments and individuals will be grumpy participants in this event. It simply means that economic growth will be subdued for years to come. I have never really been able to understand economic growth rates that are significantly ahead of the population growth anyway…oh yeah, the productivity miracle. I have written chapter and verse on the history of financial markets and where returns have come from: yield. Anyone with access to the internet can verify that dividends, dividend growth and dividend re-investment are what have driven stock returns over the decades.
