A 4-year coupon bond has payments as follows: Bond Cash Flow                         Year 1    £5                         Year 2   £5                         Year 3    £5                         Year 4    £105 The 5% coupon bond is currently trading at par (£100). Compute the duration of the bond. How much do you expect this bond’s price to rise if the yield increases by 1 percent?

Suppose that a bond pays semiannual coupons in the sequence 25, 30, 25, 35, 25, 40, ..., 25, 85. If the redemption value is 2500 dollars and the yield rate is 8.6 percent convertible semiannually, what is the price of the bond? Answer= dollars.

A bond with a coupon rate of 7.30% has a price that today equals $868.92. The $1,000 face value bond pays coupon every 6 months, 30 coupons remain, and a coupon was paid yesterday. Suppose you buy this bond at today’s price and hold it so that you receive 20 coupons. You sell the bond upon receiving that last coupon. Find the selling price if the bond’s YTM remains constant

A bond has a coupon rate of 5.2%, and 6.5 years until maturity. If the YTM is 6.2%, what is the price of this bond? TIP: Write the price as a percentage of the bonds par value. All bonds in this class make two coupon payments per year, and have a face value of $1,000. You don't need to write in the "%" sign.

A bond has a Macaulay duration of 12.00 and is priced to yield 10.0​%. If interest rates go up so that the yield goes to 10.5%​, what will be the percentage change in the price of the​ bond? Now, if the yield on this bond goes down to 9.5​%, what will be the​ bond's percentage change in​ price? Comment on your findings.
