You Answered orrect Answer A company is promising a coupon payment of $46 in 2.03 years. A risk free government bond of the same maturity is yielding 1.66% per year. The credit spread for the promised payment by the company is 1.24% per year. Both the yield and the spread are stated on a continuously compounded basis.

Treasury spot rates are as follows in today's market: Maturity (years) 1 2 3 Spot rate 1.9% 2.8% 3% One year ago, a 3-year Treasury note ($1,000 face value, 5.2% coupon rate and pays annual coupon) was issued. This security paid out its first coupon yesterday. Based on the spot rates in the table, this security should be fairly priced TODAY at $1,046.5. (hints: is this coupon bond still a 3-yr bond as of TODAY?)  However, the bond is traded at $1,043 in the market today, what is the YTM? Round to 4 decimal places.

Using duration and convexity approximation, compute the percentage price change on a 10-year fixed coupon bond, if the interest rate increases by 1%. The modified duration of the bond is 6 years, and convexity is 200 year2.   Group of answer choices   -6%   -5%   7%   -7%

Finance Consider a zero-coupon bond that will pay the face value of $1,000 in September 2023. In September 2021, we enter a long position in a forward contract on the zero-coupon bond. The forward will expire one year from now, and the forward price is $980. Suppose that a year later, in September 2022, the term structure turns out to be as follows: Maturity (years) Spot rate (% per annum) (continuous compounding) 1 5% 2 6% What is the payoff for the long position in the forward?

Fixed Income Securities4. Today is t = 0. You have just bought a five-year zero-coupon Treasurybond with $100 face value. You paid $80.(a) What is the annually compounded yield to maturity on the bond?(b) Suppose that yields at all maturities decrease to 2% immediately after you havepurchased the bond. Calculate the annualized holding period return if you sellthe bond one year after you have purchased it, at t = 1.(c) What is the annually compounded yield to maturity on the bond at t = 1?

Question 2 Assume the yield curve is flat shown as following table. A cash and $duration-neutral butterfly is to be constructed by selling one thousand 7-year coupon paying bonds and purchasing qs and ql coupon paying bonds with maturities 3 and 15 years respectively. More information on the bonds to be used in the strategy is given Note that we are assuming all bonds pay interest semi-annually. (a) Explain how to interpret the modified duration of -8.86 corresponding to the 15-year maturity bond. (b) Write down the system of equations that needs to be solved in order to find qs and ql and verify that the solution to this system is qs = 679.32 and ql =366.23. (c) Find the profit from this strategy if yield curve moves: (i) up to 8% pa and (ii) down to 5% pa. (d) Explain why in practice it may be difficult to profit from the cash and $duration neutral butterfly. (e) Explain the major differences between the 50-50 butterfly strategy and the cash and $duration neutral butterfly.
