A. Calculate the yield spread of the following floating rate bond: • Annual coupon rate = reference rate + 200 basis points• initial reference rate (annual) = 4%• The bond has a 10-year of term to maturity• Assume the bond’s par value = USD1000• The price of the bond = USD1,032.84 B. Suppose the new reference rate is decreased to 3% two years after the bond is issued. What is the price of the bond then?
The term structure for zero-coupon bonds is currently: Maturity (Years) YTM (%) 1 5.2% 2 6.2 3 7.2 Next year at this time, you expect it to be: Maturity (Years) YTM (%) 1 6.2% 2 7.2 3 8.2 Required: What do you expect the rate of return to be over the coming year on a 3-year zero-coupon bond? Under the expectations theory, what yields to maturity does the market expect to observe on 1- and 2-year zeros at the end of the year? Is the market's expectation of the return on the 3-year bond greater or less than yours?

Find the following: (a) The effective annual rate of a 3 year zero coupon bond. (b) The 2-year forward effective annual rate for a one year period. (c) The forward effective annual rate for a one year period, 3 years forward. (d) The 3-year forward effective annual rate for a 3 month period. (e) The forward effective annual rate for a one day period, 3 years forward (the “overnight” rate).(Use 1/365 for a one-day period.)

Suppose 1-year Treasury bonds yield 4.40% while 2-year T-bonds yield 5.70%.
