* The 1-year spot rate is 8%p.a. effective. The term structure of 1-year effective forward rates is as follows: at time t = 1 the rate is 7%, at time t = 2 the rate is 6%, at time t = 3 the rate is 5%. (a) Determine the term structure of spot rates. (b) A fixed income security pays £10 annual coupons and it is redeemed after 4 years for £100. Compute its price at time t = 0.

A five-year floater resets every six months to six-month LIBOR plus 100 basis points. The floater currently sells for $102.11 per $100 of face value. Six-month LIBOR is 6%. The amount of the assumed coupon that you use to calculate the discount margin for the floater is: Group of answer choices: $3 per $100 of face value $6 per $100 of face value $3.5 per $100 of face value $7 per $100 of face value
An ARM is made for $220,000 for 30 years with the following terms: Initial interest rate = 7 percent Index = 1−year Treasuries Payments reset each year Margin = 2 percent Interest rate cap = None Payment cap = 5 percent increase in any year Discount points = 2 percent Fully amortizing; however, negative amortization allowed if payment cap reached Based on estimated forward rates, the index to which the ARM is tied is forecasted as follows: Beginning of year (BOY) 2 = 7 percent; (BOY) 3 = 8.5 percent; (BOY) 4 = 9.5 percent; (BOY) 5 = 11 percent. Required: a. Compute the payments and loan balances for the ARM for the five-year period. b. Compute the yield for the ARM for the five-year period.
Suppose 6-month Treasury bills are trading at a YTM of 1%, 12-month T-bills are trading at a YTM of 3%. If 18-month Treasury notes with a coupon rate of 4% are trading at par ($100), then what is the 18-month spot rate? Assume semi-annual compounding. Round your answer to 4 decimal places. For example if your answer is 3.205%, then please write down 0.0321.

*Using Matlab* The current amount A of a principal P invested in a savings account paying an annual interest rate r is given by A = P(1+r/n)^(nt) where n is the number of times per year the interest is compounded. For continuous compounding, A = Pe^(rt). Suppose $10,000 is initially invested at 2.5 percent (r = 0.025). a. Plot A versus t for 0 ≤ t ≤ 20 years for four cases: continuous compounding, annual compounding (n = 1), quarterly compounding (n = 4), and monthly compounding (n = 12). Show all four cases on the same subplot and label each curve. On a second subplot, plot the difference between the amount obtained from continuous compounding and the other three cases. b. Redo part a, but plot A versus t on log-log and semilog plots. Which plot gives a straight line?
Suppose that a three-year FRN pays a six-month Libor plus 4% semi-annually. Currently, the six-month Libor is 2%. The price of the floater is 90 per 100 of par value. What is the discount margin?
An investment pays $1,950 per year for the first 3 years, $3,900 per year for the next 8 years, and $5,850 per year the following 11 years (all payments are at the end of each year).
