Derive the probability distribution of the 1-year HPR on a 30-year U.S. Treasury bond with a coupon of 3.5% if it is currently selling at par and the probability distribution of its yield to maturity a year from now is as shown in the table below. (Assume the entire 3.5% coupon is paid at the end of the year rather than every 6 months. Assume a par value of $100.) (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required.

Suppose that 6 - month, 12-month, 18 - month, 24 month, and 30 - month zero rates are 4%, 4.2%, 4.4%, 4.6%, and 4.6% per annum with continuous compounding respectively. Estimate the cash price of a bond with a face value of 100 that will mature in 30 months and pays a coupon of 6% per annum semiannually.

Suppose that the current 6-month, 1-year, 1.5-year and 2-year interest rates are 2.2%,3%, 3.5% and 3.75%, respectively. a) Calculate the prices of 1-year and 2-year Treasury bonds. In each case, assume theface value of £100 and the coupon rate of 5% per annum and that coupons arepaid annually. Assume continuous compounding. b) Calculate the prices of the bonds from a), applying annual discounting. Compareyour results to those obtained in a).
