问题如下:
A 150-day banker's acceptance is quoted at a discount rate of 5.62% for a 360-day year. What`s the bond equivalent yield?
选项:
A.3.21%
B.6.55%
C.5.84%
解释:
C is correct.
First we need calculate PV:
PV = 97.658
Then we use PV to calculate the bond equivalent yield:
这道题为啥不能用 effective yield 公式计算呢?
也就是
[ 1 + x / (360/150) ] ^ (360/150) = 1 + 5.62%/1
求出来 x=5.53%
