What is the answer ?

A $1,000 bond with a coupon rate of 6.7% paid semiannually has ten years to maturity and a yield to maturity of 6.2%, If interest rates fall and the yield to maturity decreases by 0.8%, what will happen to the price of the bond? O rise by $62.59 O fall by $75.11 rise by $87.62 O fall by $62.59

The yield curve for default-free zero-coupon bonds is currently as follows: Maturity (years) YTM 1 9.8% 2 10.8 3 11.8 Required: a. What are the implied one-year forward rates? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) Maturity (years) YTM Forward rate 1 9.8% 2 3 10.8% 11.8% % % b. Assume that the pure expectations hypothesis of the term structure is correct. If market expectations are accurate, what will the pure yield curve (that is, the yields to maturity on one- and two-year zero-coupon bonds) be next year? O There will be a shift upwards in next year's curve. O There will be a shift downwards in next year's curve. O There will be no change in next year's curve. c. What will be the yield to maturity on two-year zeros? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) YTM % d.

BASIC (Questions 1-17) 1. Interpreting Bond Yields Is the yield to maturity on a bond the same thing as the required return? Is YTM the same thing as the coupon rate? Suppose today a 10 percent coupon bond sells at par. Two years from now, the required return on the same bond is 8 percent. What is the coupon rate on the bond now? The YTM? LO 2 LO 2 2.
