P2. Bond J has a coupon rate of 3 percent. Bond K has a coupon rate of 9 percent. Both bonds have 19 years to maturity, make semiannual payments, and have a YTM of 6 percent. If interest rates suddenly rise by 2 percent, what is the percentage price change of these bonds? What if rates suddenly fall by 2 percent instead? What does this problem tell you about the interest rate risk of lower-coupon bonds?
H3.
1. A convertible bond pays interest annually at a coupon rate of 5% on a par value of $1,000. The bond has 10 years maturity remaining and the discount rate on otherwise identical non-convertible debt is 6.5%. The bond is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $25 per share (i.e. the bond is exchangeable for 40 shares). Today's closing stock price was $20. What is the floor value of this bond?

- Q3: Citibank has developed a way of creating a zero-coupon bond, called a strip, from the coupon bearing Treasury bond by selling each of cash flows underlying the coupon-bearing bond as a separate security. You as a treasurer working for Citibank, have a relatively simple trading strategy. You would buy strips and sell them in the forward market. Suppose for example, that the 3-month interest rate is 4% per annum and the spot price of a strip is $70. What will be the 3-month forward price?
