A $ 1 comma 000 bond with a coupon rate of 6.2​% paid semiannually has two years to maturity and a yield to maturity of 6​%. If
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

As a result of a fall in interest and YTM, the bond price will increase by $15.04

Explanation:

To calculate the change in price due to fall in interest rate, we must first calculate the price of the bond before and after the fall of interest rates.

To calculate the price of the bond, we need to first calculate the coupon payment per period. We assume that the interest rate provided is stated in annual terms. As the bond is a semi annual bond, the coupon payment, number of periods and semi annual YTM will be,

Coupon Payment (C) = 1000 * 0.062 * 0.5 = $31

Total periods (n)= 2 * 2 = 4

r or YTM = 6% * 1/2 = 3% or 0.03

The formula to calculate the price of the bonds today is attached.

<u />

<u>Before Interest rates Fell</u>

Bond Price = 31 * [( 1 - (1+0.03)^-4) / 0.03]  +  1000 / (1+0.03)^4

Bond Price = $1003.717098 rounded off to $1003.72

<u />

<u />

<u>After Interest Rates Fell</u>

New YTM = 6% - 0.8%   =  5.2% or 0.052

Semi Annual YTM = 0.052 * 0.5  = 0.026

Bond Price = 31 * [( 1 - (1+0.026)^-4) / 0.026]  +  1000 / (1+0.026)^4

Bond Price = $1018.764647 rounded off to $1018.76

Change in Bond Price = 1018.76 - 1003.72   = $15.04

As a result of a fall in interest and YTM, the bond price increased by $15.04

8. Problems and Applications Q8 Social Security benefits are increased each year in proportion to the increase in the CPI, even
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

  1. False
  2. True

Explanation:

1. Social security benefits are increased each year in proportion to an increase in CPI which measures inflation. This CPI is based on a market basket that most people use. If the social security benefits that the elderly get rises as the price of the basket rises then Social Security would not provide a decrease in their standard of living but would rather leave it unchanged so this answer is <u>FALSE.</u>

2. If Healthcare is said to be rising faster than inflation and elderly people consume more health care then that means that Social security benefits which are based on a inflation are not capturing the rise in living expenses for the elderly appropriately. This means that old people might be worse off. This is therefore <u>TRUE. </u>
