Consider a bond portfolio consisting of €20 million in three-year maturity bonds, €10 million four-year maturity bonds and €15 million in five-year maturity bonds. The three-year bonds have a duration of 2.8 years, the four-year bonds have a duration of 3.6 years, and the five-year bonds have a duration of 4.5 years. If interest rates increase by 20 basis points, what will be the percentage change in the value of the nortfolio?

D3) Finance The spread between the yield on a five-year bond issued by a company and the yield on a similar risk-free bond is 80 basis points. Assuming a recovery rate of 40%, estimate the average hazard rate per year over the five-year period. If the spread is 70 basis points for a three-year bond, what do your results indicate about the average hazard rate in years 4 and 5?
Suppose the current one-year interest rate is 3%. Also assume that financial markets expect the one-year interest rate next year to be 4%, and expect the one-year rate to be 5% the year after that. Given this information, the yield to maturity on a three-year bond will be approximately 15% OA. 5% В. Ос. 6% 12% O D. O E 4%
Suppose that in a given economy, current interest rate of the one-year bond is 4.4%. The projected yields of a one-year bond to be received in two, three, four, five, and six years from now are 4.8%, 5.2%, 5.7%, 6.2%, and 6.8%, respectively. The term premia of the one-, two-, three, four-, five-, and six-year bonds are 0.4, 0.9, 1.2, 20, 2.5, 2.8. respectively. What is the interest rate of the two-year bond?
Suppose that the yield curve shows that the one-year bond yield is 8 percent, the two-year yield is 7 percent, and the three-year yield is 7 percent. Assume that the risk premium on the one-year bond is zero, the risk premium on the two-year bond is 1 percent, and the risk premium on the three-year bond is 2 percent. a. What are the expected one-year interest rates next year and the following year? The expected one-year interest rate next year = The expected one-year interest rate the following year b. If the risk premiums were all zero, as in the expectations hypothesis, what would the slope of the yield curve be? The slope of the yield curve would be (Click to select) % %
According to the expectations theory of the term structure of interest, if the 1-year bond rate today is 6.50% p.a., the 2-year bond rate today is 6.70% p.a., and the 3-year bond rate today is 7.00%, what will be the 2-year bond rate next year?
Consider a 10-year bond with current price of $98.4 and a duration of 9.1 years. Suppose the yield on the bond is 9.6% per year with continuous compounding. What is the predicted change in the price (in dollars) of the bond if the yield increases by 0.4%? (required precision: 0.01 +/- 0.01)
Using the information from the prior problem, what rate (in %s) do you expect a 5-year bond to have? From Prior: You observe that there is a one-year Treasury bond with a yield of 3.0%. You also assume that rates will increase and that the one-year bond will increase by 1.0% each year. For example, you expect the one-year bond in year 2 will be 4.0% and 5.0% in year 3.
