Suppose that the interest rate on one-year bonds is currently 4 percent and is expected to be 5 percent in one year and 6 percent in two years. Using the expectations hypothesis, compute the yields on two- and three-year bonds and plot the yield curve.
Consider a 10-year bond with current price of $98.4 and a duration of 9.1 years. Suppose the yield on the bond is 9.6% per year with continuous compounding. What is the predicted change in the price (in dollars) of the bond if the yield increases by 0.4%?
(required precision: 0.01 +/- 0.01)
Consider an 6.5% coupon bond selling for $971.50 with three years until maturity making annual coupon payments. The interest rates in the next three years will be, with certainty, r1 = 6%, r2 = 8%, and r3 = 10%. Calculate the bond’s (a) yield to maturity and (b) realized compound yield. (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

- 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?
