Consider a bond with semiannual interest payments that has a Settlement Date of 8/15/2020, a Maturity Date of 2/15/2031, a Coupon Rate of 5.00%, a Market Price of $975, a Face Value of $1,000, and a Required Return of 5.35%. What is the Macaulay Duration using the Duration function on these bonds expressed as a decimal calculated to two decimal places if you purchase them at the current market price? For example, if your answer is 12.345 then enter as 12.35 in the answer
Consider a 10​-year bond with a face value of $1,000 that has a coupon rate of 5.8%​, with semiannual payments.
Calculate the modified duration of a bond that pays an annual coupon at a rate of 6% and matures in 2 years. This bond has a face value of 1,000 and is currently selling at a yield of 8%. Show calculations. Using just modified duration, if yield changes by 0.5%, what is the expected change in the price of the bond? Show calculations. Use the timeline method for this. Solving this in a calculator or at some other website that allows you to solve this kind of question and just putting the value is not going to be an acceptable answer.
