10) Suppose a coupon bond with 10 years remaining to maturity is reported to have a duration equal to 6.7 years.

Hint: Duration= a) 3.3% b) 2.7% c) 1.2% d) 0.6% %AP Ai/(1+io)
Suppose the interest rate on a 1-year T-bond is 2.60% and that on a 2-year T-bond is 4.50%. Assume that the pure expectations theory is NOT valid, and the MRP is zero for a 1-year T-bond but 0.30% for a 2-year bond.

Consider two zero coupon bonds. Both have face values of $100. Bond A pays its face value in 8 years, and Bond B pays its face in 2 years. If interest rates change from 9% to 7%, what is the percentage change in the long maturity bond's price minus the percentage change in the short maturity bond's price?

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.)

Assume that the pure expectations hypothesis of the term structure is correct. If market expectations are accurate, what will the pure yield curve (that is, the yields to maturity on one- and two-year zero-coupon bonds) be next year? O There will be a shift upwards in next year's curve. O There will be a shift downwards in next year's curve. O There will be no change in next year's curve. c. What will be the yield to maturity on two-year zeros? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) YTM % d. If you purchase a two-year zero-coupon bond now, what is the expected total rate of return over the next year? (Hint: Compute the current…
A one-year zero coupon bond costs $99.43 today. Exactly one year from today, it will pay $100. What is the annual yield-to-maturity of the bond? (1.e., what is the discount rate one needs to use to get the price of the bond given the future cash flow of $100 in one year?) 1.0057 0.0057 2.0057 -0.0057
There are two zero-coupon bonds below: Coupon Term to rate maturity 0% 1 year 10% 2 years Bond A B FV $100 $100 Price $95.24 $107.42 Consider a 2-year coupon bond C with FV = $100, coupon rate=25%, and price = $ 138.
