问题如下:
Bond G, described in the exhibit below, is sold for settlement on 16 June 2014.
Annual Coupon 5%
Coupon Payment Frequency Semiannual
Interest Payment Dates 10 April and 10 October
Maturity Date 10 October 2016
Day Count Convention 30/360
Annual Yield-to-Maturity 4%
The full price that Bond G will settle at on 16 June 2014 is closest to:
选项:
A.102.36.
B.103.10.
C.103.65.
解释:
B is correct.
The bond’s full price is 103.10. The price is determined in the following manner:As of the beginning of the coupon period on 10 April 2014, there are 2.5 years (5semiannual periods) to maturity. These five semiannual periods occur on 10 October2014, 10 April 2015, 10 October 2015, 10 April 2016 and 10 October 2016.
PV = 2.45 + 2.40 + 2.36 + 2.31 + 92.84 = 102.36
The accrued interest period is identified as 66/180. The number of days between10April2014 and 16 June 2014 is 66 days based on the 30/360 day count convention. (This is 20days remaining in April + 30 days in May + 16 days in June = 66 days total). The number of days between coupon periods is assumed to be 180 days using the 30/360 day convention.
考点:flat price & full price
解析:首先,我们将未来五笔现金流折现到2014.4.10,得到现值之和为102.36。N=5,PMT=2.5,I/Y=2,FV=100,求得PV=102.36
然后再将这个数值复利到2014.6.16,得到full price为103.10,故选项B正确。
我们之所以没有直接将未来五笔现金流折到2014.6.16,是因为五笔现金流的时间间隔不同,后面四笔现金流时间间隔是半年,而从6.16到10.10之间并不是半年。因此现金流就不是一个年金的形式,我们就没有办法用计算器直接求PV了。
N=5,PMT=2.5,I/Y=2,FV=100,这种情况下如果把FV输入为-100,算出的PV就是78.789,请问是为什么?
所以是否FV都是输入为正,PV输入都是为负,才可以得出正确结果?谢谢
