Question 1: True or false? Explain. (a) Longer-maturity bonds necessarily have a longer
duration. (b) The longer a bond’s duration, the lower its volatility? (e) other things equal,
the lower the bond coupon, the higher its volatility? (d) If interest rates rise, bond
durations also rise?
Solution:
a. Longer-maturity bonds necessarily have longer durations
Duration depends on the coupon as well as the maturity of the bond. Therefore,
this statement is false.
b. The longer a bond’s duration, the lower its volatility
Yield to maturity of a bond and volatility of the bond is proportional to the
duration. So, the expression is false.
c. Other things equal, the lower the bond coupon, the higher its volatility.
This is true because a low coupon rate means longer duration and therefore higher
volatility.
d. If interest rates rise, bond durations rise also.
This is a false statement as a higher rate decreases the relative present value of
principal repayments.
Question 2: Calculate the durations and volatilities (modified durations) of securities A,
B, and C. Their cash flows are shown below. The interest rate on 8%:

Solution:
There are three securities with the same time maturity (3periods) but different cash flows.
The interest rate for all the security is 8%.
The duration is the time required for the bond to make inflow equal to the market price of
the bond/security on a weighted basis. The original version of the duration is Macaulay
duration.
The formula of the duration:

Volatility is modified duration. The modified duration finds the change in the price of the
bond with a change in the interest rates.
The formula of the volatility or modified duration is:
𝑽𝒐𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒚 =
𝑫𝒖𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏
𝟏 + 𝒀𝒊𝒆𝒍𝒅
Security A:
Volatility = 1.949/1+0.08
= 1.806
The volatility of security A is 1.80%.
Security B:
Volatility = 2.59/1+0.08
= 2.398
The volatility of security B is 2.398%.
Security C:
Volatility = 1.949/1+0.08
= 2.537
The volatility of security C is 2.537%.
Question 3: A 10-year U.S. Treasury bond with a face value of $10, 000 pays a coupon
of 5.5% (2.75% of face value every six months). The semiannually compounded interest
rate is 5.2% (a six-month discount rate of 2.6%). What is the PV of the bond? Generate a
graph or table showing how the bonds PV changes for semiannually compounded interest
rates between 1% and 15%.
Solution:
Data:
Face Value = $10,000.00
Coupon rate = 5.5% (2.75% every 6months)
Semiannual Interest rate = 5.20%
6-months discount rate =
2.60%

Question 4: A six-year government bond makes annual coupon payments of 5% and
offers a yield of 3% annually compounded. Suppose that one year later the bond still
yields 3%. What return has the bondholder earned over the 12-month period? Now
suppose that the bond yields 2% at the end of the year. What return would the bondholder
earn in this case?
Solution:
Computation of return the bondholder earned over the 12-months period at 3% yield:

Question 5: A 6% six-year bond yields 12% and a 10% six-year bond yields 8%.
Calculate the six-year spot rate. Assume annual coupon payments.
Solution:
Finding the six-year spot rate:
Assuming the face value of the bond is $1,000, then the 6% six-year bond has a coupon
of $60 and the 10% six-year coupon has a coupon of $100.

The sum of the coupon payment of 2 6%, 6-years bond and 1.2 10%, 6-years bond would
be same in the first five years regardless of the spot rate in these first five years.

Coupons of two 6% coupon bonds are equal to the one and half of the 10% coupon
bonds.
The difference between the prices of 2 6% coupon bonds and 1.2 10% coupon bonds
(cost of portfolio) is as follows:

Question 6: Is the yield on high-coupon bonds more likely to be higher than that on lowcoupon bonds when the term structure is upward-sloping, or when it is downwardsloping? Explain.
Solution:
The term structure of the interest rates represents the relationship between the short and
long-term interest rates. The term structure on interest rate is also called the yield curve.
The yield curve shows how the yield of the interest securities is plotted over the maturity
period.
If the term structure of interest rate is upward sloping, the long-term interest rates will be
higher than the short-term interest rates. It does not mean that investing in long-term
securities is more profitable than investing in short-term securities.
If the term structure of interest rate is upward sloping, the investors expect short-term
interest rates to rise. When the term structure is upward sloping, the investors like to
borrow short with the expectation of increase in interest rates.
If the term structure of the interest rate is downward sloping, the short-term interest rates
will be higher than the longer-term interest rates.
The highest proportion of the cash flows from the higher coupon bonds will be provided
in the early years. Hence, a higher coupon bond will be considered as a shorter bond.
Therefore, when the term structure is downward sloping, the high coupon bonds’ yield
will be higher than the low coupon bonds’ yield.
Question 7: You have estimated spot rates as follows: r1 = 5.00%, r2 = 5.40%, r3 =
5.70%, r4 = 5.90%, and r5 = 6.00%.
a. What are the discount factors for each date (that is, the PV of $1 paid in year t)?
b. Calculate the PV of the following bonds assuming annual coupon»: (i) 5%, two-year
bond (ii) 5%, 5-year bond, and (iii) 10%, 5-year bond
c. Explain intuitively why the yield to maturity on the 10% bond is less than that on the
5% bond
d. What should be the yield to maturity on a five-year zero-coupon bond?
e. Show that the correct yield to maturity on a five-year annuity is 5.75%
f. Explain intuitively why the yield on the five-year bond described in part (b) must lie

Yield

The yield on the 10% bond is lower than the yield on the 5% bond. The calculation of
yield depends on the spot rate and the coupon payment. The coupon payment for the 10%
bond is higher as compared with the 5% bond. Hence the yield is lower for a 10% bond.
d. What should be the yield to maturity on a five-year zero-coupon bond?
The YTM on a 5-year zero-coupon bond is the 5-year spot rate. Since it is zero-coupon
bond, no coupon interest will be available. Hence the YTM is 6.0% which is the yield at
the end of the 6th year.

f. Intuitive explanation on why the yield on the five-year bond described in part (b) must

The yield is somewhere between the 5-year bond and the 5-year coupon bond, as their
cash flow lies between the two instruments when interest rates rise
