Answer:

The truth about Macaulay Duration and Modified Duration is:

d. All are true.

Explanation:

Principally, the Macaulay Duration, used mainly with immunization strategies, measures the weighted average time an investor holds a bond until the period when the present value of the bond’s cash flows equals to the initial bond amount.

On the other hand, the Modified Duration, providing a risk measure by being sensitive to interest rates, identifies the amount by which the duration changes for each percentage change in the yield and, at the same time, measures how the amount of a change in the interest rates impacts a bond's price.

9. Problems and Applications Q9 Suppose that a borrower and a lender agree on the nominal interest rate to be paid on a loan. Th
den301095 [7]

Answer: False

Explanation:

The real interest rate is the nominal interest rate adjusted for inflation.

If the nominal interest rate was made with inflation in mind and this inflation is less than anticipated, the real rate will be higher not lower than expected.

For instance: Assume the nominal rate is 8% and the two parties assumed inflation would be 4%. Real rate would be:

= 8 - 4 = 4%

If inflation is instead 2%, real rate would be:

= 8 - 2 = 6%

Real rate would be higher than anticipated.

Cindy invests $10000 in an account that pays an annual rate of 3.96%, compounding semi-annually. approximately how much does she
stiks02 [169]

Annual Compound Formula is:

A = P( 1 + r/n) ^nt

Where:

A is the future value of the investment

P is the principal investment

r is the annual interest rate

<span>n is the number of  interest compounded per year</span>

t is the number of years the money is invested


So for the given problem:

P = $10,000

r = 0.0396

n = 2 since it is semi-annual

t = 2 years

 

Solution:

A = P( 1 + r/n) ^nt

A = $10,000 ( 1 + 0.0396/2) ^ (2)(2)

A = $10000 (1.00815834432633616)

A = $10,815.83 is the amount after two years
