Finance definition Question by : Bonds 101 [Debt Financing] HELP. EASY 10 POINTS GUARANTEED!?
have a test soon and need your help guys. have a couple of questions you guys don’t mind answering for me. answer all questions (as thorough as possible) to get 10 points.
1) How does a bond work exactly…I mean, the bond is an IOU..which is the principal (par value) + the cost (contract rate) of using the money… so as the bondholder, do I pay fixed, installment payments..but here is where I get lost…at the point of maturity, or full repayment, conceptually speaking how much does the bondholder get back? …does it depend on the market value (rate) of the bond? …like what’s the general equation for maturity of a bond…= par value x contract rate x annual period? is that all ….wouldn’t that be constant..basically, there’s no return or gain…? im lost.
2) second easy question. bonds can be issued at par (given contract rate = market rate), at discount (contract rate < market rate), or at premium (contract rate > market rate)…I understand the meaning of these words…but what does it mean in real terms…what does this translate into/mean both as an issuer and bondholder ….
will i (as an issuer) have a higher interest expense if the bond is issued at a discount? …and the bondholder gets a higher return?…or vis versa…
3) third and lastly, what in the world is “amortization”? … tried looking up the etymological definition…for the life of me, i still cannot make sense of it.
PLEASE HELP ME, I WILL GREATLY REWARD YOU WITH 10 POINTS !!!!!!!!
…ONLY FAIR, RIGHT?
