Zero-Coupon YTM | 4% | 4.3% | 4.5% | 4.7% | 4.8% |
Consider a five-year, default free bond with annual coupons of 5% and a face value of $1000. Assume the law of one price holds
1) what is the YTM of this bond
2) If the YTM increases to 5.2%, what would the new price be
1 | 0.04 | 1.04 | 0.961538 | $ 50.00 | $ 48.08 |
2 | 0.043 | 1.087849 | 0.919245 | $ 50.00 | $ 45.96 |
3 | 0.045 | 1.141166 | 0.876297 | $ 50.00 | $ 43.81 |
4 | 0.047 | 1.201674 | 0.832172 | $ 50.00 | $ 41.61 |
5 | 0.048 | 1.264173 | 0.791031 | $ 1,050.00 | $ 830.58 |
Price | $ 1,010.05 |
Now using this to calculate ytm:
=RATE(5,50,-1010.045,1000)
=4.77%
If YTM increases to 5.2%
PV:
=PV(0.052,5,50,1000)
=$991.39
