• Amortization features
• Embedded options.
8. Term

expires.
Usually just called ―term‖ or ―maturity.
Bond terms:
Short term: 1 to 5 years.
Intermediate term: 5 to 12 years.
Long term: > 12 years.
9. Principal:
The amount the issuer agrees to
repay to bondholders at the maturity date.
• Also commonly called: face value, par value, maturity
value.
Coupon
Rate: the annual interest rate the
issuer agrees to pay on the face value
(principal).
• The coupon is the annual amount the issuer promises
to pay (in $):
• coupon = coupon rate *principal
• The coupon is paid semiannually on most bonds.
10. Some
bonds pay no coupons (zerocoupon bonds).
Zeros are sold at a substantial discount to
face value and redeemed at face value at
expiration.
All interest is therefore received at
expiration.
Some bonds have floating coupons
The coupon resets periodically, according
to some formula
11. The
coupon for a floater is determined
by the following general formula:
• Floater coupon = floating reference rate + fixed
margin
12.
The principal on a bond can be paid
two ways:
• Paid all at once at expiration (―bullet‖ maturity).
• Paid little-by-little over the life of the bond
according to a schedule (amortizing).
One
advantage of a bond that amortizes
principal is that the issuer won’t have to
fund a big “balloon payment” at
expiration.
13. Options
are actions that can be taken by
either the issuer or the investor.
The
most common is a call provision: Grants
issuer the right to retire bonds (fully or
partially) prior to maturity.
Put
provision: Enables the bondholder to sell
the issue back to issuer at par value prior to
expiration.
