Assume that the 1-year zero-coupon bond is sold at $88.97 and
the yields to maturity for the coupon bonds selling at market
prices equal to their face values are 12% and 14% for 1-year and
1.5-year issues respectively. Coupons are paid every 6 months and
face values are $100 for all the bonds.
(a) Calculate the spot rate curve (s0.5, s1, s1.5).
(Keep your answer in decimal format 4 decimal places, e.g. 0.1234. Do not give in percent format e.g. 12.34%.)
s0.5: s1: s1.5 :
(b) Compute the quasi-modified duration for each of these bonds. (Keep 2 decimal places, e.g. xx.12.)
Zero-coupon bond:
12% coupon bond:
14% coupon bond:
(c) Determine the current price of an 10% coupon bond with face value $100 and 18 months to maturity. (Keep 2 decimal places, e.g. xx.12.)
