Please answer the above question and explain as much as possible about the effects of both rise and fall. Thanks!
Homework Answers
A) There is an inverse relationship between value of the portfolio and yield to maturity. As the ytm or interest rates increase the value of the portfolio decreases because ytm is used in the denominator while calculating the value of the portfolio and also because the returns on risk free investments increases.
When there is a rise in 100 basis point in the interest rate, the ytm increases , but the value of the portfolio and price of the bond falls . This happens every year till maturity, until the interest rate does not stay constant.
B) When there is a fall in 100 basis point in the interest rate, the ytm decreases, but the price of the bond and the value of the portfolio increases. This makes the risk free investment less attractive and increases the demand for risky bonds. The decrease in interest rate every year by 100 basis point will lead to increase in the value of portfolio every year until maturity.
