Assume that the yield curve is YT = 0.04 + 0.001 T.
(a) What is the price of a par-$1,000 zero-coupon bond with a maturity of 10 years?
(b) Suppose you buy this bond. If 1 year later the yield curve is YT = 0.042 + 0.001 T, then what will be the net return on the bond?
A coupon bond has a coupon rate of 3 % and a current yield of 2.8 %.
