13 Cash flow I consists of three payments: A in 5 periods, B in 10 periods and C in 15 periods. Cash flow 2 consists of 2 payments X in 6 periods and Y in 12 periods. As of now, at yield j per period for all maturities, the two sets of cashflows have the same present value and the same Macaulay duration. Suppose that one period from now the yield is still j for all maturities. Show that (a) the two sets of cash flows will have the same present value;
