Portfolio BB has a dollar duration of 90,000 and a market value of $3 million. Suppose that one year later the yield curve shifted upward, which consequently decreased the dollar duration to 65,000 and decreased the market value to $2.5 million. What is the portfolio's rebalancing ratio and total increase in portfolio value required to readjust the portfolio back to its original dollar duration? o Rebalancing ratio=D1.23; Dollar adjustment $575,000; o Rebalancing ratio=D0.62; Dollar adjustment $950,000; O Rebalancing ratio=1.38; Dollar adjustment $950,000;

As a manager of your company, you are considering to go for a project, with an initial outlay of $200,000. The project has a life of three years and yields (year-end) cash inflows of $ 100,000 in year-1, $150,000 in year-2 and $200,000 in year 3. What is the net present value of the project if the interest rate is 10 percent? Show your steps. Should you recommend to go for the project? Explain in details.
The present value of a $1000 discount bond with five years to maturity is $825. Calculate its yield-to-maturity. (Enter your answer in decimal form, up to three decimal places. Example: If your answer is 8.1%, enter it as 0.081) Answer:
The demand D (in billions of £) for a bond with coupon rate 5% and face value FV = 1000, and two years to maturity as a function of its price P is D = 4000 − 2P. The supply in (billions of £)as a function of the price of the bond is S = 2P + 400. b) Suppose that the yield to maturity of the bond is i = 0.05. What is the quantity demanded/supplied at this interest rate? What happens to the demand/supply of the bond as the interest rate increases? Explain why. c) What is the equilibrium interest rate? d) Suppose that the bond trades at premium. Is there excess demand or supply? Explain. e) There is a business cycle contraction, so both supply and demand shifts. After the shift, the new demand curve is given by: D = 4000 + X − 2P , whereas the new supply curve is S = 2P + 200. For which values of X will the interest increase/decrease? Which values of X are in line with empirical data?

A bond has a Macaulay duration of 10.00 and is priced to yield 8.0%. If interest rates go up so that the yield goes to 8.5%, what will be the percentage change in the price of the bond? Now, if the yield on this bond goes down to 7.5%, what will be the bond's percentage change in price? Comment on your findings. If interest rates go up to 8.5%, the percentage change in the price of the bond is nothing%. (Round to two decimal places.) If interest rates go down to 7.5%, the percentage change in the price of the bond is nothing%. (Round to two decimal places.) Comment on your findings. (Select the best answer below.) A. As interest rates decrease, the price of the bond decreases. As interest rates increase, the price of the bond increases. B. As interest rates increase or decrease, the price of the bond will always increase. C. As interest rates increase or decrease, the price of the bond remains the same. D. As interest rates…
