5) The following table contains data to calculate forward rates using pure expectations theory. a) Find the yield on a 20 year bond, 10 years forward (10f 20). b) Find the yield on a 5 year bond, 2 years forward (2r5). Maturity Yield 1 year 4.73% 2 years 4.375% 3 years 4.25% 5 years 4.125% 7 years 4.00% 10 years 2.75% 20 years 3.375% 30 years 3.00% ง

Bonds have a maturity risk premium that can be modeled as the following:MRP =  (t-1)  0.3%were t represents the years to maturity. What is the Maturity risk premium of a bond that matures in 8 years? answer in % without the symbol

1. Consider the following bond that pays coupon interest semi-annually. Coupon Yield to maturity Maturity (Years) Par Value Bond 8% 6% 2 $100 a) What is the price value of a basis point? Assuming one basis point decrease. b) Compute the Macaulay duration theoretically. What is the modified duration? c) Compute the approximate duration by increasing yield by 20 basis points and compare your answers with those calculated in part (b). d) Compute the convexity measure theoretically. e) When the yield increases by 20 basis points, what is the new bond price? What is the estimated bond price using duration calculated in part (b)? What is the estimated bond price using duration calculated in part (b) together with the convexity calculated in part (d)?

Consider a bond that has a price of $1046.76, a coupon rate of 8.8%, a yield to maturity of 8.1%, a face value of $1000, and 10 years to maturity. What is the current yield? Enter your answer as a percentage. Do not include the percentage sign in your answer. Enter your response below. Enter your answer to 2 DECIMAL PLACES. Number %

A bond quotes a rate of return of 5% and will pay $1,000 in one year with a probability of 42% and $0 with a probability of 58%.   part A)What is the time premium?   part B)What is the default premium?

Suppose you can observe that 1-year bond interest rate is 4%, 2-year bond interest rate is 8%, and 3-year bond interest rate is 10% at time t. It is also known that the term premium on a 2-year bond is 1% and the term premium on a 3-year bond is 1.5%. a) What are the market's expected 1-year bond interest rates for the next two years from time t? b) How to interpret those expected short-term interest rates? (what would be the "possible" economic meanings in the expected short- term interest rates?) Discuss as least two "candidates" to explain them.

Suppose 2-year Treasury bonds yield 4.1%,while 1-year bonds yield 3.2%. r* is 1%, and the maturity risk premium is zero.a. Using the expectations theory, what is the yield on a 1-year bond, 1 year from now?Calculate the yield using a geometric average.b. What is the expected inflation rate in Year 1? Year 2?

1) Explain the concept of interest rate risk in bond investment 2) show a numerical example of it by calculating % changes in price for 1 year and 3-year annual coupon bonds. Assume coupon interest rate = 12%, Yield to Maturity = 6%, Face value= 100. Use 2% increase in YTM (i.e., 6% → 8%).

Consider information on the following bonds (with face value 100): Bond Maturity (years) Coupon rate Yield-to-maturity А 1 0% 5.0% В 2 5% 5.5% C 3 6% 6.0% Coupons are paid annually. What is the three-year spot interest rate?

Answer briefly the following questions:a) Write the formula of the Price-Earnings ratio and explain how a result of 11 should be interpreted.b) Write the equation for the PV of 200.000₺ to be received two years later when the market interest rate isforecast as 17%.c) Define the yield to maturity of a 4-year maturity bond whose face value will be repaid at the end of thematurity.d) Define the intrinsic value of a 2-year maturity bond whose face value will be repaid in equal installments.
