Both Bond Sam and Bond Dave have 7.3 percent coupons, make semiannual payments, and are priced at par value. Bond Sam has three

years to maturity, whereas Bond Dave has 20 years to maturity. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent, what is the percentage change in the price of Bond Sam and Bond Dave? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign. Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answers as a percent rounded to 2 decimal places, e.g.,32.16.)

Answer:

Sam change:   -5.13%

Dave change -18.01%

Explanation:

If interest rate increase by 2%

then the YTM of the bond will be 9.3%

We need eto calcualte the present value of  the coupon and maturity of the bond at this new rate:

<em><u>For the coupon payment we use the formula for ordinary annuity</u></em>

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

Coupon payment: 1,000 x 7.3% / 2 payment per year: 36.50

time 6 (3 years x 2 payment per year)

YTM seiannual: 0.0465 (9.3% annual /2 = 4.65% semiannual)

36.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0465)^{-6} }{0.0465} = PV\\

PV $187.3546

<u><em>For the maturity we calculate usign the lump sum formula:</em></u>

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity: $ 1,000.00

time: 6 payment

rate: 0.0465

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.0465)^{6} } = PV  

PV   761.32

Now, we add both together:

PV coupon $187.3546 + PV maturity  $761.3154 = $948.6700

now we calcualte the change in percentage:

948.67/1,000 - 1 = -0.051330026 = -5.13

For Dave we do the same:

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 36.50

time 40

rate 0.0465

36.5 \times \frac{1-(1+0.0465)^{-40} }{0.0465} = PV\\

PV $657.5166

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity   1,000.00

time   40.00

rate  0.0465

\frac{1000}{(1 + 0.0465)^{40} } = PV  

PV   162.34

PV c $657.5166

PV m  $162.3419

Total $819.8585

Change:

819.86 / 1,000 - 1 = -0.180141521 = -18.01%

What is the best way to help students use materials successfully in learning centers?
astraxan [27]

The best way to help students demonstrate ways to use materials is when introducing them.

<h3>How can learning centers effectively support students in making effective use of the resources there?</h3>

Create, share, and put procedures into action. The complicated choreography of different students, spaces, and materials that centers entail. Teachers are responsible for developing thorough procedures, explaining them to pupils, and giving them enough time to practice them until they become second nature.

The group with purpose: Centers give students the option to work independently, in groups of their choosing based on interests, or in mixed- or leveled-ability groups. All grouping choices must be deliberate and based on the character and goal of each activity.

Give students meaningful tasks: Centers activities in all subject areas should be engaging, difficult, and, whenever possible, give students a chance to practice skills in real-world contexts. This means that activities should assist students in making connections between their classroom learning and real-world situations or in forming practical habits of mind.
