What is the real return of IFB/1/2016/15 bond?

If you bought Shs 100 face value of this bond, you bought it at a discount of Shs 6.471 and therefore you paid Shs 93.529

In the first 6 months which is equivalent to 182 days, you will be paid Shs 5.983 as interest, computed (100x12%x182/365)
If you were to reinvest Shs 5.983 at the same rate 12% for another 6 months, you would earn interest income of Shs 6.341, computed (105.983x12%x182/365) .

Total interest earned in 12 months is 5.983+6.341 = 12.324
Actual funds invested = 93.529
Return = 12.324/93.529 = 13.177%

I thought there is a payment schedule for the interest after every six months?i,e the issue of re-investing the Shs 5.983 is not there because you have to redeem it?


You are right,but do you think the cash you receive after the first 6 months should be equivalent in value to the cash you will receive after the 2nd 6 months?

It is assumed you will invest this cash and get some value.

@maka, na usicheke hii swali:

Suppose one is applying for Kes. 100,000.

And he pays CBK Kes.93,673 ex-discount, what will be his/her 6-monthly interest earnable?

Will he/she get:
12% of 100,000? or
12% or 93,673? or
13.177% of 100,000? or
13.177% of 93,673?

And on maturity, will he/she get back 100,000 or 93,676?

#By the way on Sato I forgot to ask you this during the mbuzi-11 due to the thithimaa effect, though we could see you an ontrapruniewol mind.

You don't remember the argument on Wazua whether T/Bills in earned upfront or at redemption and there was no conclusion to it. smile

@Thitimaaa,T/Bill interest is earned at REDEMPTION, wachana na wale wazee kina @mukiha etal...who will pay you money upfront in any business in this world?

If for instance you applied for 182 day papr for amount of 100,000 and the rate was 10% and there was no TAX, then you will pay CBK Kes. 95,251...at maturity you get paid from CBK kes. 100,000 and therefore take with you profits/interest of (100,000-95,251) = Kes 4,749.

How?

I dont think so.

T/Bills are short term instruments, while Bonds are bonding for a long time.

Let me ask you,at the time you remit the money to CBK,do you give them 100,000 or 95,251?

You don't remember the argument on Wazua whether T/Bills in earned upfront or at redemption and there was no conclusion to it. smile


Really why wasnt there a conclusion?


@Thitimaaa,T/Bill interest is earned at REDEMPTION, wachana na wale wazee kina @mukiha etal...who will pay you money upfront in any business in this world?

If for instance you applied for 182 day papr for amount of 100,000 and the rate was 10% and there was no TAX, then you will pay CBK Kes. 95,251...at maturity you get paid from CBK kes. 100,000 and therefore take with you profits/interest of (100,000-95,251) = Kes 4,749.

smile smile


why are you contradicting yourself?

The fact that you are paying 95,251 and getting 100,000 later is somebody paying you upfront!


If I place Kes. 95,251 in a fixed account at Equity and get my principal plus interest amounting to Kes.100,000, does that amount to Equity paying me upfront?

Please stick to Vaseline and Bar-Soap.


Young man, when you buy TB at Kshs 95,251 with a par value of 100K and you get interest of kshs 12K per year, you have been paid upfront kshs 4,749 aka the discount.

Sema ujinga!


Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly

Let me ask you,at the time you remit the money to CBK,do you give them 100,000 or 95,251?

NOBODY WILL NEVER PAY YOU FOR GOODS NOT DELIVERED,IN ANY HONEST BIGNESS!

Both are not applying, In the above, the coupon rate is 12% while the discount is the difference between par value-market value

Both the zero coupon and coupon bonds can have a discount and vice versa is also true depending on the yield rate

If there is a coupon rate and a discount, then both are applying?In which case,
this thing should be called a "hybrid" bond?To me it appears that this bond biz has been made mysterious to discourage small timers from investing therein?
