A newly issued bond with 1 year to maturity has a price of $1,000, which equals its face value. The coupon rate is 15% and the probability of default in 1 year is 35%. The bond’s payoff in default will be 65% of its face value. a. Calculate the bond’s expected return. b. Use a data table to show the expected return as a function of the recovery percentage and the price of the bond. Please show how you got part B using all functions.

A 30-year maturity bond making annual coupon payments with a coupon rate of 11.00% has a ation of 13.50 years. The bond currently sells at a yield to maturity of 5.75%. Ducation a. Find the exact dollar price of the bond if its yield to maturity falls to 4.75%. What is the % change in price? b. Assume that you need to make a quick approximation using the duration rule. What is the % change in price as approximated by the duration rule when the yield to maturity falls to 4.75%? c. Does the duration-rule provide a good approximation of the % price change in this case? Why or why not?

Suppose that the yield curve shows that the one-year bond yield is 8 percent, the two-year yield is 7 percent, and the three-year yield is 7 percent. Assume that the risk premium on the one-year bond is zero, the risk premium on the two-year bond is 1 percent, and the risk premium on the three-year bond is 2 percent. a. What are the expected one-year interest rates next year and the following year? The expected one-year interest rate next year = The expected one-year interest rate the following year b. If the risk premiums were all zero, as in the expectations hypothesis, what would the slope of the yield curve be? The slope of the yield curve would be (Click to select) % %
