1 Chaper 9, Secion 1 1. (S09T3) John mus pay Krisen 10,000 a he end of 1 year. He also mus pay Ahmad 30,000 a he end of year 2. John wans o exacly mach his liabiliies by purchasing he following wo bonds: a. Bond A is a one year zero coupon bond mauring for b. Bond B is a wo year bond wih annual coupons of 200 and a mauriy value of Calculae he amoun of each bond ha John should buy. John needs o make he cash flows going ou equal o he cash flows coming in. To do his, we can se up wo equaions where a is he amoun of bond A and b is he amoun of bond B. We know ha a he end of year 1 John will pay 10,000 and he will receive 1000 from every bond A and 200 from every bond B. Then a he end of year wo when he needs o pay 30000, he will be receiving 1200 for every bond B a200b b Simply solve his sysem algebraically b b a 200(25) a 5

She wans o purchase bonds o exacly mach her paymens. She can purchase he following hree bonds: Bond Number Term of Bond Annual Coupon Mauriy Value 1 1 Year Years Years Calculae he amoun of Bond 2 which Yvonne should purchase. Once again, we jus need o se up equaions ha will mach he cash flows a 60b 70c b70c c Now we need o solve, saring wih c c b b

3 3. (F11HW) Rivera Insurance Company has commied o paying 10,000 a he end of one year and 40,000 a he end of wo years. I s Chief Financial Officer, Miguel, wans o exacly mach his obligaion using he following wo bonds: Bond A is a one year bond which maures a par of 1000 and pays an annual dividend a a rae of 6%. This bond can be bough o yield 6% annually. Bond B is a wo year bond which maures a par of 1000 and pays an annual dividend a a rae of 10%. This bond can be bough o yield 7% annually. Calculae he amoun of each bond ha Rivera should purchase. Calculae he cos of Rivera o exacly mach his obligaion a100b b Solving, b a Now, le s find he price of each bond in order o find he oal cos o mach. Price of Bond 1: N 1 I / Y 6% PMT 60 FV 1000 CPT PV 1000 Noe: We could also know his inuiively because he coupon rae is he same as he yield.

4 4. (F11HW) Wang Life Insurance Company issues a hree year annuiy ha pays 40,000 a he end of each year. Wang uses he following hree bonds o absoluely mach he cash flows under his annuiy: a. A zero coupon bond which maures in one year for b. A wo year bond which maures for 1200 and pays an annual coupon of 100. This bond is priced using an annual yield of 7%. c. A hree year bond which maures for 2000 and pays annual coupons of 75. This bond has a price of 1,750. I cos Wang 104,000 o purchase all hree bonds o absoluely mach his annuiy. Calculae he one year spo ineres rae. Absolue maching means ha he cash flow from he bonds a any given ime should be exacly he same as he cash flow from he annuiy. In his case, we need he bonds o produce a cash flow of $40,000 a imes 1,2, and 3. In order o do his we will need o buy a cerain amoun of each bond. These values will be x, y, and z. Someimes i is easies o se up a able ha summarizes cash flows: Bond Amoun Price CF a =1 CF a =2 CF a =3 A X 1000/(1+r 1 ) B Y C Z In he able above, he Price for bon B was found using he calculaor. N 2 PMT 100 I / Y 7 FV 1200 CPT PV Now we can se up a few equaions in order o solve for he unknown variables. Firs, since here is only one bond wih a cash flow a ime 3 we can find z very easily: 2075Z Z Then we can find Y: 1300Y 75Z (19.277) Y Finally we can find X.

5 1000X 100Y 75Z (19.277) 100(29.657) X Now ha we know he amoun of each bond we are purchasing and we are given our oal cos, we jus need o find he price of he one year bond which will in urn give us he one year spo rae X Y 1750Z 1 r Noe ha he price of he firs bond = 1 r.
