Answer:
The portfolio value trigger point at this time that would require the manager to immunize the portfolio would be $12,401,625
Explanation:
In order to calculate the portfolio value trigger point we would have to calculate first the Minimum terminal value as follows:
Minimum terminal value=portfolio value*(1+rate of return)∧3
portfolio value= $10 million
rate of return=4.0%
Hence, Minimum terminal value=$10,000,000*(1.04)∧3
Minimum terminal value=$11,248,640
To calculate the portfolio value trigger point we would have to make the following calculation:
portfolio value trigger point=Minimum terminal value*(1+interest rates)∧2
portfolio value trigger point=$11,248,640*(1.05)∧2
portfolio value trigger point=$12,401,625
The portfolio value trigger point at this time that would require the manager to immunize the portfolio would be $12,401,625
