Suppose a(t) = 0.0015 (t-3) + 0.042 (1-2)³ + 1.2145. Calculate values of a(t) and the effective rate of interest, i, for integer values of t from 0 to 50 (no need for an effective rate at t = 0). Then graph the values of the effective rates of interest Round the a(t) values to 3 decimal points and round the interest rates to 2 decimal in percentage form. points

An insurer needs to make the following annuity payments to an individual: £2176 paid at the end of each year for the first 15 years and then £2177 paid at the end of each year for the following 12 years. Calculate the total amount of fund the insurer needs to hold today in order to meet these payments, given that the effective rate of interest is: 5.8% pa for the first 7 years and then 6.2% pa thereafter. Express your answer in £s to 2 decimal places. (correct answer = 28787.58)
The demand D (in billions of £) for a bond with coupon rate 5% and face value FV = 1000, and two years to maturity as a function of its price P is D = 4000 − 2P. The supply in (billions of £) as a function of the price of the bond is S = 2P+ 400. What is the equilibrium interest rate?
What is the present value of $1.21 received at the end of two years if the interest rate is 10% and compounding is annual? a- 1.31 b- 1.21 c- 1.10 d- 1.00 Which of the following is a leading economic indicator? a- average prime interest rate charged by banks b- stock prices, 500 common stocks c- commercial and industrial loans outstanding d- industrial production
Suppose you pay $971 for a 10=year Treasury bond that has a face value of $1,000 and a coupon rate of 5%. If you sell the bond one year later for $1,013, what is your one-year rate of return? (Give your answer as a percentage, round your answer to two decimal places; e.g., 4.37 for 4.37%)
Suppose you purchased a corporate bond with a 10-year maturity, a $1,000 par value, a 9% coupon rate ($45 interest payment every six months), and semiannual interest payments. Five years after the bonds were purchased, the going rate of interest on new bonds fell to 6% (or 6% compounded semiannually). What is the current market value (P) of the bond (five years after the purchase)?(a) P = $890(b) p = $1,223(c) P = $1,090(d) p = $1,128
A five-year bond with a yield of 11% (continuously compounded) pays an 8% coupon at the end of each year. a) What is the bond’s price? b) What is the bond’s duration? c) Use the duration to calculate the effect on the bond’s price of a 0.2% decrease in its yield. d) Recalculate the bond’s price on the basis of a 10.8% per annum yield and verify that the result is in agreement with your answer to (c).

Consider a 25-year loan with an annual interest rate of 7 percent and monthly payments of $1,201.53. The discount points charged by the lender at origination are 3 percent and the cost of borrower title insurance and mortgage insurance are, respectively, 0.5 percent and 2.0 percent of the loan amount. Additional fees paid to other third parties (i.e., not the lender) will equal $4,000. What is the loan amount? What is the lender’s yield/IRR? What is the effective borrowing cost (EBC)? USE EXCEL
