问题如下:
Given the following
bonds and forward rates:
1-year forward rate one year from today = 9.56%
1-year forward rate two years from today =
10.77%
2-year forward rate one year from today =
11.32%
Which of the following statements about the forward rates, based on the bond prices, is true?
选项:
A.The 1-year forward rate one year from today is too low.
B.The 2-year forward rate one year from today is too high.
C.The 1-year forward rate two years from today is too low.
D.The forward rates and bond prices provide no opportunities for arbitrage.
解释:
1-year forward rate one year from today = 1.072/1.045 – 1 = 9.56%
1-year
forward rate two years from today = 1.093/1.072 – 1 = 13.11%
2-year
forward rate one year from today = (1.093/1.045)0.5
– 1 = 11.32%
是不是可以理解为零息债券的YTM与spot rate就是一样的?
