Suppose the current yield on a one-year, zero coupon bond is 3%, while the yield on a six-year, zero coupon bond is 7%. Neither bond has any risk of default. Suppose you plan to invest for one year. You will earn more over the year by investing in the six-year bond as long as its yield does not rise above what level? A. 60% B. 7.82% C. 10.38% D. 9.1%
You find a zero coupon bond with a par value of $10,000 and 19 years to maturity. The yield to maturity on this bond is 4.7 percent. Assume semiannual compounding periods. What is the price of the bond? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.
You own a bond with an annual coupon rate of 5% maturing in two years and priced at 85%. Suppose that there is a 23% chance that at maturity the bond will default and you will receive only 45% of the promised payment. Assume a face value of $1,000.A. What is the bond’s promised yield to maturity?B. What is its expected yield (i.e., the possible yields weighted by their probabilities)
, a. Find the duration of a 7% coupon bond making annual coupon payments if it has three years until maturity and a yield to maturity of 7.6%. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 4 decimal places.) b. What is the duration if the yield to maturity is 11.6%? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 4 decimal places.) 7.6% YTM __ Years 11.6% YTM __ Years
PICK ONE: Explain why YOU: Suppose that 6 months after you purchase the bond, the market rate for interest on this type of bond falls to 7.00%. This will cause the (coupon / market price / par value) to (fall / rise). From the issuer’s perspective, the lower interest rate means that he or she would be (worse / better) off issuing new bonds at this lower rate than continuing to pay you 9%.
Suppose you inherit $100,000 at age 25 and immediately invested in a growth fund who’s annual rate of return average is 13%. Five years later, you transfer all proceeds from the scrubs fun into a long-term IRA that pays an average annual rate of 8%. Immediately you start making additional contributions of $7000 per year to the same IRA. Assuming continuous interest, steady interest rates, and a perfect record of making annualcontributions, how much is this IRA worth when you reach the age of 65? The formula that will need to be used is A = P e^r*t + D/r (e^r*t - 1). Hint: use the continuous interest formula to find the accumulated amount for the first five years, which is then the annual investment, P, into the IRA.
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. What is the equilibrium market forecast for 1-year rates 1 year from now? a. 4.7333% b. 5.1110% c. 5.2676% d. 5.5463% e. 5.8250%. Only typing answer Please explain step by step
Suppose the current yield on a one-year zero-coupon bond is 4%, while the yield on a five-year zero-coupon bond is 6%. Neither bond has any risk of default. Suppose you plan to invest for one year. You will earn more over the year by investing in the five-year bond as long as its yield does not rise above what level? (Assume $1 face value bond.) Hint: It is best not to round intermediate calculations-make sure to carry at least four decimal places in intermediate calculations. Note: Assume annual compounding. The yield should not rise above %. (Round to two decimal places.)
12. Suppose that you buy a 1-year maturity bond for $1,000 which is a real return bond with a coupon rate of 4%. What will the cash flow provided by the bond be for each of the four inflation rates? What will be the real and nominal rates of return on the bond in each scenario? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) a. The inflation rate is 2%. b. The inflation rate is 4%.
A 6.5 percent coupon bond with 14 years left to maturity is priced to offer a yield to maturity of 7.2 percent. You believe that in one year, the yield to maturity will be 6.8 percent. What is the change in price the bond will experience in dollars? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places.) Change in bond price
