问题如下:
A two-year zero-coupon bond issued by ABC Co. is currently rated A. The market expects that one year from now the probability that the rating of ABC remains at A, is downgraded to BBB, or is upgraded to AA are, respectively, 80%, 15%, and 5%. Suppose that the risk-free rate is flat at 1% and that credit spreads for AA-, A-, and BBB-rated debt are flat at 80, 150, and 280 basis points, respectively. All rates are compounded annually. What is the best approximation of the expected value of the zero-coupon bond one year from now?
选项: 97.41
97.37

D.92.44
解释:
ANSWER: A
After one year, the bond becomes a one-year zero-coupon bond. The respective values are, for AA, A, and BBB, , 97.56, and 96.34. Note that prices are lower for lower ratings. The expected value is given by .
PAA=100/(1+0.0180)
=98.23, 97.56, and 96.34.
0.018是怎么来的啊老师请问下
还有他是A变A,AA,BBB.和这些A-。。。这些的spread有什么关系
