Question:
Consider a non-recourse mortgage with one payment of $10,600,000 due one year from now. The uncertain future is characterized by the following scenarios and probabilities:
- Scenario I: 70% probability, property worth $13,000,000
- Scenario II: 20% probability, property worth $11,000,000
- Scenario III: 10% probability, property worth $9,000,000
If a foreclosure occurs, the (deadweight) cost paid to third parties will be $2,000,000. One-year US Treasuries are yielding 6% and investors require a risk premium of 1%.
- What is strategic default, and how is it related to limited liability and the cost of foreclosure?
- What would this loan sell for today if scenario III results in a deed-in-lieu, and scenario II results in a strategic default in which the difference between the borrower’s and lender’s extreme position is split 50/50?
- What is the present value cost of credit risk?
