Addig 18 years to Jauary 1, 003 brigs us to Jauary 1, 01. The begiig of Jauary 1, 01 is the same as the ed of December 31, 00. We ca use the BA II Plus to aswer this questio: 00,000 [PV] 360 [N] 0.5 [I/Y] [CPT] [PMT] Result is 1, [STO] 1 5 [N] [y x ] 1 [] 1 [=] [] 100 [=] [I/Y] 10,000 [PMT] [CPT] [PV] [+] 00,000 [=] Result is 158, [PV] 0.5 [I/Y] [RCL] 1 [PMT] [CPT] [N] Result is , so the fial paymet occurs after 16 moths. 16 [] 1 [=] Result is 18.

Solutio 111 B Chapter 18, Spot Rates The price of a zero-coupo bod as a percetage of its redemptio value is equal to the iverse of the accumulatio factor achieved by ivestig i the bod. Therefore ivestig X i the 6-moth bod, for example, results i a accumulated value of: X 0.94 Ivestig X i each of the bods results i a accumulated value of: X X X X X X X 6.196X Settig this accumulated value equal to 100,000 allows us to solve for X: 6.196X 100,000 X 16,078.9 Solutio 11 D Chapter 1, Loas We use the followig formulas: t1 Itt (1 v ) Pmt t1 Prt v Pmt Usig the iformatio provided i the questio, we have: 10 It1 (1 v ) Pmt 3, Pr6 v Pmt 4,871 Page 48 ActuarialBrew.com 015
