4. Both Bond A and Bond B have 6% coupons, make semiannual
payments, and are priced at par value. Bond A has three years to
maturity, whereas Bond B has 20 years to maturity. If the interest
rates suddenly rise by 2 percent point to 8%, what is the
percentage change in the price of Bond A and Bond B? If rates were
to suddenly fall by 2 percent points to 4% instead, what would be
the percentage change in...

1. (15 points) Consider a 12%-coupon bond with a face value on of 2 years. The bond pays coupons annually, so there are bond with a face value of $1,000 and a remaining maturity wally, so there are two remaining payments. a. (9 points) What is the duration of the bond if the yield-to-mac if the yield-to-maturity is 10%?
Consider a 3-year risk-free bond, which pays annual coupons. The coupon rate is 3.5% and the face value is 500. The bond is issued at time t=0, pays coupons at time t=1,2,3 and face value at time t=3. You purchase the bond at time t=0. While holding the bond, you do not reinvest the coupon payments. What is the future value, at time t=2, of the coupon payments you received if you held the bond from t=0 to maturity? What...

1. a) Calculate the percentage change in price on a 10 percent coupon (annual coupons), $1,000 face value 3-year bond if the discount rate rises from 5 percent to 10 percent. Calculate the percentage change in price on a 3-year zero coupon bond, face value $1,000, for the same interest rate change. Based on your answer, which of these bonds has a higher duration. b) Suppose the term structure of interest rates for U.S. government bonds is “flat” meaning that...

Consider a bond with the following characteristics. Par: $1,000 Two coupon payments per year (i.e., coupons are paid semi-annually) Coupon rate: 4.00% Years to maturity: 8 Bond price: $1,000 Suppose that the annual market interest rate for this bond drops by 1%. What is the new bond price? Note: recall that the annual yield-to-maturity (YTM) is the market interest rate on the bond. $1,070.66 $1,000.00 $934.72
