Valuing Cash Flows II
Contingent Payments
Valuing Cash Flows
So far, we have been pricing securities with cash
flows that are predefined and fixed.
Given the stream of cash flows and an expected path
for interest rates, the price of the instrument is simply
the discounted value

Valuing Cash Flows
Suppose that the cash flows are still predefined,
but not fixed. Instead, each cash flow is
dependant on some future “state of the world”
Given the stream of (state dependant) cash flows and
an expected path for (state dependant) interest rates,
the price of the instrument is still the discounted value

Example
Assume that the required real (inflation adjusted)
rate of return is 2%. Each period there are two
possible states of the world
State #1 State #2
Inflation = 0% Inflation = 8%
r = 2% r = 2%
i = r + Inflation = 2% i = r + Inflation = 10%
Each state has an equal chance of occurring.
E(Inflation) = (.5)(0%) + (.5)(8%) = 4%
E(i) = (.5)(2%) + (.5)(10%) = 6%
Now, consider a 1 year STRIP with a face value of
$100. How should this security be priced?
State #1 $100
P= = $98.04
Inflation = 0% (1.02)
i = 2% + 0% = 2%
State #2
$100
Inflation = 8% P= = $90.91
(1.10)
i = 2% + 8% = 10%
E(P) = (.5)($98.04) + (.5)($90.91) = $94.48
Shouldn’t this equal 6%
$100 - $94.48 (the expected nominal
YTM = *100 = 5.84% return)?
$94.48
Remember, the bond pricing
Price is non-linear! Therefore,
E(f(x)) = f(E(x)) (Jenson’s Inequality)

Pricing TIPS
In 1996, the US Government introduced Treasury
Inflation Protected Securities. These are bonds with
state contingent payouts. Each future payment is
indexed to the inflation rate.
State #1 State #2
Inflation = 0% Inflation = 8%
i = r + Inflation = 2% i = r + Inflation = 10%
CF = $100 CF = $108
Now, consider a 1 year STRIP with a face value of
$100. How should this security be priced?
State #1 $100
P= = $98.12
Inflation = 4% (1.02)
i = 2% + 0% = 2%
State #2
$108
Inflation = 8% P= = $98.12
(1.10)
i = 2% + 8% = 10%
E(P) = (.5)($98.12) + (.5)($98. 12) = $98.12
$100 - $98.12
YTM = = 2%
$98.12
TIPS vs. STRIPS
P(TIPS) - P(STRIP) = $98.12 - $94.48 = $3.64
Y(STRIP) – Y(TIPS) = 5.84% - 2% = 3.84%
Here, the price reflects (approximately),
the expected inflation rate over the
coming year.
Is this the only factor
influencing the spread
between STRIPS and TIPS?
The STRIP has a larger amount of risk associated
with it.
STRIP
P (Inflation = 0%) = $98.04 Std Dev = 5
P (Inflation = 8%) = $90.91
Shouldn’t this
TIP risk be worth
something?
P(Inflation = 0%) = $98.12 Std Dev = 0
P(Inflation = 8%) = $98.12
TIP Price = STRIP Price + Inflation Premium + Risk Premium
Consider the following Prices (for a 3.875% annual
coupon) on Treasuries vs. comparable TIPS
Maturity Date Non-Indexed TIPS
Treasury
1/09 $101.56 $111.75
(3.47%) (.823%)
3.47% - .823% = 2.647%
This would be a reasonable starting point
for market expectations of inflation, but
there could be other risk factors built in!!

Some assets have maturity dates that can vary
based on interest rate movements…
Now 5yr 10yrs 15yrs 20yrs 25yrs
Face Value can be repaid
anytime in this period
Bond Issued
Some corporate bonds are callable. That is, after
some initial period, the company is able to pay
off the face value early. For example, a 25 year
bond – callable after 15 yrs
If interest rates drop low enough in the “call period”, the firm will
pay the bond off early
MBS/ABS
In the early eighties, many types of cash
flows were “securitized” into bonds
Home/Commercial Mortgages
Car Loans
Student Loans
Credit Card Debt
All these bonds have one thing in common…the
loans on which these bonds are based have the
ability to be refinanced!

Funding Mortgages
The bank can
either keep the
loan on its
books or
replenish its
funds by selling
off the loan
Home buyer goes to
a mortgage provider
for a loan
These companies will either hold the loans on their
books or package the loans into Mortgage Backed
Securities to sell to private investors
Mortgage Payments
The bank
collects the
payment and
passes it along
to the MBS
creator (they
collect a fee for
this service)
Home buyer makes
monthly mortgage
payments
MBS issuers pass along mortgage payments to
individual investors
Fannie Mae (Federal National Mortgage Association)
was created in 1938 by the Federal Housing Authority
to promote home ownership by creating liquidity in the
home mortgage market
Fannie Mae raises funds Fannie Mae uses these
through the issuance of funds to purchase
Agency bonds – these mortgages
are implicitly backed by
the US government
Fannie Mae will convert
some of these
mortgages to issue MBS
Fannie Mae currently holds around $1T worth of
mortgages on its books in addition to issuing close to
$2T in MBS (roughly 40% of all mortgages)
Fannie Mae is the largest participant in the $4T MBS
Market

For example, in the 9th month, you could take out a new loan and pay
off the $198,171 outstanding on your original mortgage.
Loan pools are characterized by Constant Prepayment Rates
(CPR) the Public Securities Association assumes that , for a
given interest rate, CPRs start at zero and reach a maximum of
6% per year in the 30th month. As interest rates fall, CPR’s
increase.

Mortgage backed securities are Path Dependant. That is, the cash flows vary

are two paths in which the mortgage is paid off

To price this asset, calculate the value over each

At sufficiently high interest rates, the bond will never
prepay. Therefore, we can treat this bond like a non-
contingent bond
Any bond with equal monthly payments has a Macaulay

Effective Duration
To compute an effective duration, calculate the price
of a bond for a 50 basis point increase as well as a 50
basis point decrease (around an initial value)
Note: for a given path, all interest rates rise by 50
basis points!
