Method: Yield-based valuation: $25.00 par/liquidation value per unit; 5.875% coupon = $1.46875/yr distribution; fair yield ~7.00% for a ~53-year (due Mar 2079) junior subordinated hybrid note of BBB-grade utility holding company CMS Energy in the current rate environment (10-yr UST ~4.0-4.3%, typical 275-300bp hybrid spread) => value = 1.46875/0.07 = $20.98.
Reasoning: CMSD is CMS Energy Corp's 5.875% Junior Subordinated Notes due 2079, economically identical in coupon to CMSC but with a later maturity; it is a fixed, non-growing coupon instrument trading on NYSE like a preferred, so an income/yield valuation is appropriate.
