inter 3. You are considering the purchase of a callable bond that was issued two years ago (on May 3, 2020). The bond has an 8% annual coupon, a $1000 par value, and eight more years to maturity (i.e., the bond matures on May 3, 2030). The bond is currently selling for $900 and can be called at 108 (percent of par) on or after May 3, 2025 (i.e., 3 years from today). a. What is the bond's yield to maturity (today)? b. What would be the bond's yield to call if the bond is called in 3 years from today? c. Is the bond likely to be called in 3 years? Why? (Similar to Homework Q#3 Chapter 7) (Hint: Drawing a timeline may be helpful.)
