- An 8%, 15-year bond has a yield-to- maturity of 10% and a modified duration of 8.05 years. If the market yield changes by 25 basis points, how much of the change in the bond's price will be due to duration?arrow_forwardA bond's modified duration is 6.7 years, its convexity is 223.5, and its yield to maturity is 4.4% per year. By what percent will the bond's price change, if its yield to maturity decreases by 200 basis points? 1) 14.8% 2) 16.7% 3) 17.9% 4) 15.5% 5) 17.4%arrow_forwardConsider a 10-year bond with current price of $98.4 and a duration of 9.1 years. Suppose the yield on the bond is 9.6% per year with continuous compounding. What is the predicted change in the price (in dollars) of the bond if the yield increases by 0.4%?

- A bond currently sells for 1,200, which gives it a yield to maturity of 8%. Suppose that if the yield increases by 25 basis points, the price of the bond declines to 1,155. Based on this price change, what is the duration of the bond? How do i calculate this?arrow_forwardAssume a bond with a 10% annual rate has 8 years left to maturity when market rates are at 12%. Assume semi-annual payments. What is the price of the bond at 3 different points in time - today, in 1 year, and in 2 years. Is this a discount or premium bond, and what do you notice about the relationship between the price and maturity value (FV) over time?arrow_forwardA bond has 10 years until maturity, carries a coupon rate of 9%, and sells for $1,100. Interest is paid annually. a) If the bond has a yeild to maturity of 9% 1 year from now, what will its price be at that time? b) What will be the rate of return on the bond? c) Now assume that interest is paid semannually. What will be the rate of return on the bond? d) If the inflation rate during the year is 3% what is the real rate of return on the bond?arrow_forward
- Suppose a bond has a price today of $800, a coupon rate of 4.95%, and six years remaining to maturity. If interest is paid semi-annually, what is this bond's yield to maturity?arrow_forwardSuppose that the yield curve shows that the one-year bond yield is 8 percent, the two-year yield is 7 percent, and the three-year yield is 7 percent. Assume that the risk premium on the one-year bond is zero, the risk premium on the two-year bond is 1 percent, and the risk premium on the three-year bond is 2 percent. a. What are the expected one-year interest rates next year and the following year? The expected one-year interest rate next year = The expected one-year interest rate the following year b. If the risk premiums were all zero, as in the expectations hypothesis, what would the slope of the yield curve be?

It is also known that the term premium on a 2-year bond is 1% and the term premium on a 3-year bond is 1.5%. a) What are the market's expected 1-year bond interest rates for the next two years from time t? b) How to interpret those expected short-term interest rates? (what would be the "possible" economic meanings in the expected short- term interest rates?)
