Describe and compare the expectations theory and the liquidity premium theory of the yield curve.
Using the expectation theory of the yield curve, calculate the approximate expected short term yields for the next five years if the long term yields for bonds of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 years maturity are given by 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5%, 4.8%.
) Consider buying a 1000 pbr bond at the market price of 800 pbr. The bond paysdividends semiannually at a rate of 8% per year over 10 years (i.e. The bond matures in 10 years).(a) Calculate the coupon rate?(b) Calculate the dividend amounts /Coupon interest payments.(c) Draw the cash flow diagram for the bond investment.(d) Calculate the effective annual yield.
Graph the yield curve, if investors expect that next year the yield on one-year bonds rise from 8% to 12%, and in two years from now the yield fall from 12% to 11%.
