13. Mr. John dela Cruz borrowed money from a bank. He receives from the bank P1,340.00 and promised to pay P1,500.00 at the end of 9 months. Determine the following: a. simple interest rate; b. the corresponding discount rate or often referred to as “Bankers Discount”.
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:
12 Inflationary expectations in the economy increase rapidly, evoking a much stronger response from issuers of bonds than borrowers of bonds. Using the model of supply and demand for bonds, illustrate and explain the impact of this increase in inflationary expectation on equilibrium bond price and interest rate.

1. A security promises a future cash flow of exactly $4,200 in 5 years and $1,001 in 6 years. If the interest rate is 5%, then what is the present value of this security? 2.There are decreasing opportunities for businesses to make profitable investments. In the market for bonds we expect that the equilibrium price will and the equilibrium interest rate will
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?

Determinants of Interest Rate for Individual Securities A particular security's default risk premium is 3.10 percent. For all securities, the inflation risk premium is 2.10 percent and the real interest rate is 2.30 percent. The security's liquidity risk premium is .80 percent and maturity risk premium is 1.00 percent. The security has no special covenants. What is the security's equilibrium rate of return?
