Question:

Dinoo Mathur wishes to determine whether the $1,000 price asked for Stanco Manufacturing’s bond is fair in light of the theoretical value of the attached warrants. The $1,000-par-value, 30-year, 11.5%-coupon-interest-rate bond pays annual interest and has 10 warrants attached for purchase of common stock. The theoretical value of each warrant is $12.50. The interest rate on an equal-risk straight bond is currently 13%.

b. Calculate the implied price of all warrants attached to Stanco’s bond.

c. Calculate the implied price of each warrant attached to Stanco’s bond.

d. Compare the implied price for each warrant calculated in part c to its theoretical value. On the basis of this comparison, what assessment would you give Dinoo with respect to the fairness of Stanco’s bond price? Explain.
