问题如下:
Calculate the forward bucket 01s for a two-year bond with a coupon of 8% and a face value of USD 10,000 when the there are two buckets: 0–1 year and 1–2 year. Assume that the term structure is flat at 4% (semi-annually compounded).
解释:
The value of the bond is
400/1.02+400/1.022 +400/1.023 +10,400/1.024 = 10,761.5457
When the forward rates in the first bucket increase by one basis point, the value of the bond becomes
400/1.02005+400/1.020052 +400/(1.020052×1.02)+10,400/(1.020052×1.022)= 10,760.5100
This is a decrease of 1.0358. When the forward rates in the second bucket increase by one basis point, the value of the bond becomes
400/1.02+400/1.022+400/(1.022×1.02005)
+10,400/(1.022×1.020052) = 10,760.5854
This is a decrease of 0.9604. The forward bucket 01s are therefore 1.0358 and 0.9604.
题目问:2年期的债券coupon rate是8%,面值是10k,当有2个buckets:0-1年和1-2年时,计算forward bucket 01s。假设利率的期限结构是flat,4%的利率,半年付息一次。
债券价格:
= 400/1.02+400/1.022 +400/1.023 +10,400/1.024
= 10,761.5457
当0-1年的bucket的forward rate上升1bp时,债券价格变成:
= 400/1.02005+400/1.020052 +400/(1.020052×1.02)+10,400/(1.020052×1.022)
= 10,760.5100
价格下降了1.0358.
当1-2年的bucket的forward rate上升1bp时,债券价格变成:
=400/1.02+400/1.022+400/(1.022×1.02005)+10,400/(1.022×1.020052)
= 10,760.5854
价格下降了0.9604.
The forward bucket 01s 为 1.0358 和 0.9604.
如果考虑利率下降1bp,算出来的结果是不一样的,这题为什么用上升算而没有考虑下降的情况
