View source for Cash bond

Cash [[bond]] is a deposit that helps to stop the running of [[interest]] in situation when the amount of underpayment equal to the deposit which does not earn itself  interest (Congress Joint Committee on Taxation 2005, 406).

Cash bond's owner is entitled to having its available funds cap [[risk]]. If the ABS security is not repaid by the expected maturity of the cash bond, it means the owner of a cash bond receive the coupon step-up (L.Goodman 2008, 141).

Cash bonds keep to be main recipients of global liquidity. At the same time availability of derivatives influence the investors' willingness to hold cash bonds (D. Yalkovlev, M.Lu 2018, 38).

==History==
There was an active [[market]] in corporate [[bonds]] on the NYSE but only until 1946. In the 1930s, the trading volume on bonds was around one fifth to one third of the trading volume in stocks. In earlier years, there was also a market of municipal and governments bonds. '''First organized exchange''' was established by a group of “under the buttonwood tree” brokers to trade bonds of U.S. [[government]]. It was an event that modern NYSE its descent ( B. Biais, R. C. Green 2007, 1). 

==Description==
Bond itself is a [[certificate]] to show evidence of debt. The par value is the bond's face amount payable at maturity. The rate of the coupon is the amount of the yearly payments that are going to be divided by the principal amount. Physical coupons helps holders to engage in income [[tax evasion]]. Firms tend to issue not coupon bonds but registered bonds. The [[firm]] or it's agent register track of the registered bonds(C. Stickney 2009, 844). 

Bonds are also referred as '''„fixed income”''' [[investments]]. Investor knows exactly how much he is going to earn from a bought bond at its maturity date. Stocks does not assure buyer about the [[investment]] rate (S. Jovanovic 2014,245).

Bonds can be purchased individually or as a package of funds. When bonds are purchased individually buyer can decide of specific characteristic of them. Buying bonds in a package in a variety of forms helps to diverse risk (H. Richelson, S. Richelson 2011, 301). 

Some types of bonds:
# '''Convertible bonds''' – are corporate types on debt securities that allows the older to forgo future coupon  or/and principal payments. In such case bond holder can receive specified number of shares.  Convertible bond is a hybrid of straight bond and a call on the underlying equity (K. Tsiveriotis, C. Fernandes 1998, 95). 
# '''Zero coupon bond''' (discount bond) – they are sold at a discount and do not make interest payments every month like the regular bond does (S. Jovanovic 2014, 245).
# '''Bond premium''' - parrarel of bond discount, issue [[price]] exceed par value (C. Stickney 2009, 844).

==OTC Options==
'''OTC market''' consists only two parties during selling and buying [[process]] (M. A. Wong, R. High 1991, 46).

In the most of the cases bonds are traded through '''over-the –counter''' markets which are decentralized. OTC markets allows only a little of pre-trade transparency. It means that dealers do not post accessible firm quotes publicly. Additionally, only dealers are able to provide quotes ( B. Biais, R. C. Green 2007, 1).
Listed bonds traditionally have been traded OTC and on the Exchange as well. Bond dealers manage inventories in the securities ( B. Biais, R. C. Green 2007, 9).

'''Key difference between the OTC and the NYSE''' is the difference in their transparency. The OTC market does not record prices and dealers does not have any obligation to disclose them. On the Exchange transactions prices and orders are recorded and available to the public ( B. Biais, R. C. Green 2007, 10).

==Hedging using fututres==
Future is a contract that is legally binding to make or take a delivery of a given commodity (quantity and [[quality]]) at the previously decided price on a specific date. The buyer (long position) is entitled to purchase the underlying commodity and the seller (short position) is entitled to sell it (M. Scheidler 2007, 3).

Equation: '''risk free position = cash bond position - futures [[option]]''' states that the investor who is short in futures contract and long the cash market bond should anticipate to earn "the rate of return ona risk-free security with the same maturity as the futures delivery date" (F.J. Fabozzi 2001, 602).

Equation for a long bond position: '''cash bond position = risk-free position + futures position'''. it means that a cash bond position is equal to "short-term risk-free security position plus a long bond futures position" (F.J. Fabozzi 2001, 602).

Bond [[futures]] can be used in many ways depending on purpose. Significant part of one day's trading in futures might change and be speculative. Another use of futures is to keep bond position. In theory hedging bonds and futures results in minimalizing loss from one position that is going to be offset by gain from another position providing cash and price of futures move together (M. Choudhry 2010, 299).

==Examples of Cash bond==
* A cash bond can be used when a business or individual has not paid the full amount of taxes due. The cash bond can be used to cover the amount of taxes due until the full amount is paid.
* A cash bond can also be used to guarantee the performance of a contract. For example, if a contractor is hired to build a house and the owner wants to ensure that the [[work]] is completed, they may require the contractor to post a cash bond. If the contractor fails to complete the [[project]], the owner can collect the cash bond.
* A cash bond can also be used as collateral when a loan is taken out. For example, if a business takes out a loan and then fails to pay it back, the lender can use the cash bond to help cover the [[cost]] of the loan.

==Advantages of Cash bond==
Cash bond can provide several advantages to taxpayers. To begin with, *cash bond eliminates the [[need]] for taxpayers to pay interest on any underpayment of taxes. This can help taxpayers save [[money]], as they do not have to pay interest on the amount they owe. Additionally, *cash bond helps to ensure that taxpayers pay their taxes on time, as it serves as a guarantee that the taxes will be paid. Furthermore, *cash bond is a simple, straightforward way for taxpayers to make sure their taxes are paid in full and on time, as it requires no complex calculations or paperwork. Lastly, *cash bond provides a more secure way of paying taxes than other methods, as it ensures that the taxes are paid in full and on time.

==Limitations of Cash bond==
One of the limitations of cash bond is the inability to pay the full amount of the underpayment. *Cash bond only allows the taxpayer to pay a portion of the amount due, which can result in additional interest charges if the amount is not paid in full. Additionally, cash bond may not be an option for those with a poor credit score, as the bond must be backed by a surety or personal asset. Furthermore, cash bond often comes with high fees and interest rates, making it an expensive solution for taxpayers. Lastly, there are often restrictions on how much of the bond can be used to cover the underpayment, which can lead to further complications if the amount of the bond is insufficient to cover the full amount.

==Other approaches related to Cash bond==
A cash bond is a type of security deposit made to secure the payment of a debt or other obligation. There are several other approaches related to cash bond that can help to prevent running of interest in case of underpayment:
* '''Security Deposits''': Security deposits are funds held by a third party in exchange for a guarantee that a debt or other obligation will be paid. This can be used in situations where the amount of underpayment is equal to or greater than the security deposit.
* '''Surety Bonds''': Surety bonds are a type of guarantee that a debtor will pay a debt or other obligation when due. These bonds are typically provided by an [[insurance]] [[company]], and can be used in situations where the amount of underpayment is equal to or greater than the surety bond amount.
* '''Payment Plans''': Payment plans are agreements between a debtor and creditor that allow for the repayment of a debt or other obligation over an extended period of time. This approach can be used to help prevent the running of interest in cases of underpayment, as long as the debtor agrees to a payment [[plan]] that covers the full amount of the debt or obligation.

In conclusion, cash bond is one approach to help prevent running of interest in cases of underpayment, but there are several other approaches, such as security deposits, surety bonds and payment plans, that can also be used.
