Answer:
A) the implied 1 year forward rates respectively 9,8 , 11,81 and 13,83 according to the formular
Explanation:
b) pure expactations true then
1.108²/1.098 - 1 =11.81% for a two year bond
1.118²/1.108 - 1 = 12.81% for a three year bond
The answere: The will be a shift upwards in next years curve.
c) Assume a par of 1000
in the next year a two year zero coupon bond will be a year zero and sell at 1000/1.1181 = 894.37 to get the return we take divide selling prices at year zero the trading price according to ytm is 1000/1.108² =814.55
therefore expected return 894.37/814.55= 9.79%
c2 the zero coupon bond at three year zero is trading at 1000/1.1282 = 886.446 and according to the ytm the coupon is trading at 1000/13.83^3= 715.607
therefore the expected return is
785.711/715.607=9.79%
Answer:
D. Elimination of the price floor

A lowered priced goods facilitates increased quantity demanded but a decreased quantity of a specific goods/product supplied brings about reduction in surplus.
Answer:
Yield to Maturity(YTM) = 3.47%
Explanation:
<em>The yield to maturity is the required rate of return (discount rate) that would equate the price of the bond and cash outflow expected from the bond. The yield on the bond can be determined as follows using the formula below: </em>
YTM = C + F-P/n) ÷ 1/2 (F+P)
YTM-Yield to maturity-
C- coupon
F- Face Value
P- Current Price
DATA
Coupon = coupon rate × Nominal value = 1,000 × 8%× 1/2=40(note we divide by 2 because interest is paid semi-annually)
n= 4×2 = 8 (note there 2 half months in a year)
Face Value = 1000
YM-?, C-40, Face Value - 1,000, P-103.75/100× 1000 = 1037.5
YM = (40 + (1000-1037)/8) ÷ ( 1/2× (1000 + 1037.5 ) ) =0.0347
YM = 0.0347
× 100 = 3.47%
Yield to Maturity = 3.47%
D. Type of pets allowed is NOT a component of a standard housing lease.
