Answer:

a) increasing government spending or cutting taxes

Explanation:

Fiscal polices are polices enacted by the government to achieve certain macroeconomic objectives. There are two types of fiscal policies:

1. Expansionary fiscal policy: These are government policies which involves increasing government spending or cutting taxes. Decreasing taxes increases disposable income and increases consumption spending.

Increasing government spending increases money supply which increases consumption spending.

2. Contractionary fiscal policy: These are government policies which involves decreasing government spending or increasing taxes.

Monetary policy are policies enacted by the Central bank to achieve certain macroeconomic objectives.

Bond j has a coupon rate of 5 percent and bond k has a coupon rate of 11 percent. both bonds have 13 years to maturity, make sem
aleksley [76]

To find the change in the price of the bonds, first need to find the price of individual Bond.

Bond Price is directly related to the change in the YTM of the bond. If the YTM rises by 2%, the price of the bond will fall.

Bond J :

(WHEN YTM IS 8%)

Coupon Rate: 5%

Coupon Amount (PMT): $1,000 * 5% = $50/2 = $25 (Semi annual coupon amounts)

Number of years (NPER) = 13*2 = 26

YTM (rate) = 8%/2 = 4%

Face Value: $1000

Price (PV0) : ?

To find the price of the bond, can either use excel or with formula.

When input the below formula in excel,

PV =pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv,type)

P0 =pv(4%,26,-25,-1000)

When input the formula in excel, we get PV as $760.26

(WHEN YTM RISES BY 2%, NEW YTM IS 10%)

Coupon Amount (PMT): $25 (Semi annual coupon amounts)

Number of years (NPER) = 26

YTM (rate) = 10%/2 = 5%

Face Value: $1000

Price (PV1) : ?

To find the price of the bond, can either use excel or with formula.

When input the below formula in excel,

PV =pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv,type)

P1 =pv(5%,26,-25,-1000)

When input the formula in excel, we get PV as $640.62

CHANGE IN THE BOND PRICE OF BOND J DUE TO THE CHANGE IN THE YTM

%change = (P1 – P0)/P0

%change = ($640.62 - $760.26)/$760.26

%change = -18.68%

Therefore, with the increase in 2% YTM of BOND J, the price falls by 18.68%

Bond K :

(WHEN YTM IS 8%)

Coupon Rate: 11%

Coupon Amount (PMT): $1,000 * 11% = $110/2 = $55 (Semi annual coupon amounts)

Number of years (NPER) = 13*2 = 26

YTM (rate) = 8%/2 = 4%

Face Value: $1000

Price (PV0) : ?

To find the price of the bond, can either use excel or with formula.

When input the below formula in excel,

PV =pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv,type)

P0 =pv(4%,26,-55,-1000)

When input the formula in excel, we get PV as $1,239.74

(WHEN YTM RISES BY 2%, NEW YTM IS 10%)

Coupon Amount (PMT): $55 (Semi annual coupon amounts)

Number of years (NPER) = 26

YTM (rate) = 10%/2 = 5%

Face Value: $1000

Price (PV1) : ?

To find the price of the bond, can either use excel or with formula.

When input the below formula in excel,

PV =pv(rate,nper,pmt,fv,type)

P1 =pv(5%,26,-55,-1000)

When input the formula in excel, we get PV as $1,071.88

CHANGE IN THE BOND PRICE OF BOND K DUE TO THE CHANGE IN THE YTM

%change = (P1 – P0)/P0

%change = ($1071.88 - $1239.74)/$1239.74

%change = -13.54%

Therefore, with the increase in 2% YTM of BOND k, the price falls by 13.54%

SIMILALRY IF THE BOND PRICES FALLS BY 2%, the YTM WILL BE 6%/2 = 3% **(REFER THE IMAGE ATTACHED)
