Answer:
D. None of the above.
Explanation:
When there's a change in demand, the demand curve shifts and only quantity demanded changes- it either increases or reduces but price doesn't change. A change in demand is caused by factors that affect a consumer's demand for a good other than the price of the commodity.
Some of the factors that cause a change in demand include:
1. Change in income
2. Change in taste
3. Season
When there's a change in supply, the supply curve shifts and quantity supplied changes but there's no change in price. Change in supply is caused by other factors that affect supply other than price.
Answer:
Note: <em>The complete question is attached as picture below</em>
1a. The one year spot rate can be calculated using the one year zero bond.
PV * (1 + S1) = FV
1 + S1 = 1000 / 900
S1 = 1.1111 - 1
S1 = 0.1111
S1 = 11.11%
1b. PV of the 2 year bond = $950
Annual coupon = 1000 * 5% = $50
950 = 50 / (1 + S1) + (50 + 1000) / (1 + S2)^2
950 = 50 / 1.1111 + 1,050 / (1 + S2)^2
1,050/ (1 + S2)^2 = 950 - 45 = 905
(1 + S2)^2 = 1050 / 905
1 + S2 = 1.160221/2
S2 = 7.714%
1c. Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / (1 + 0.07714)^2
Price of the 2 year zero bond = 1,000 / 1.1602
Price of the 2 year zero bond = 861.9203586
Price of the 2 year zero bond = $861.92
