An increase in the riskiness of a particular security would not affect:______.

Business
1 answer:
kap26 [50]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Inflation is a persistent rise in general price level.

When inflation is expected, Investors ask for an increase in nominal interest rate in order to maintain the value of investments.

When a security becomes more risky, the chances of default of the security increases, so investors ask for an higher total return in order to compensate for the increased risk of default.

Risk premium increases with the increase in risk of a security

Investors are less willing to hold the bond because there is the risk that the security won't be able to make the contractual payments

Grains = ($200,000 × 50%) - $9,000 = $91,000

Candy = ($200,000 × 15%) - $3,000 = $27,000

(3) Hotels = ($40,000 × 46%) - $3,500 = $14,900

Grains = ($40,000 × 42%) - $4,000 = $12,800

Ganezh [65]

Answer: Macaulay Duration = 2.6908154485 = 2.69

Explanation:

Macaulay Duration = Sum of Cash flows Present Value/ current bond price

Cash flows: year 1 = $12

Cash flows: year 2 = 12

Cash flows: year 3 = 100 + 12 = 112

Sum of Cash Flow PV = (1×12÷ (1.118)^1) + (2×12÷ (1.118)^2) +(3×112÷(1.118)^3)

Sum of Cash Flow PV = 270.37857712

Current Bond Price or Value = Face Value/ (1+r)^n + PV of Annuity

Current Bond Price or Value = 1000/ (1.118)^3 + (30×(1 - (1+0.118)^-3)/0.118

Current Bond Price or Value  = 100.48202201

Macaulay Duration = 270.37857712 ÷ 100.48202201

Macaulay Duration = 2.6908154485 = 2.69

mestny [16]

Answer:

The correct answer is I. Underestimate the percentage increase in bond price when the yield falls; IV. Overestimate the percentage decrease in bond price when the yield rises.

Explanation:

Convexity is the relationship between price and profitability of a bond. The duration has to do with the period in which the bonds mature, where some variables such as redemptions are taken into account in order to finally be able to measure the risk of changes in interest rates.
