A 60-day, $1 million CD has an 8% annual rate quote. If CD rates fall to 7% after 10 days, what would your profit be if you then sold the CD?
Notional Principle = $1,000,000
Annual Quote = 8%
60 days rates = 8% × 60 / 360
= 1.33%
60 days rates is 1.33%.
Purchase price of CD = $1,000,000 / (1 + 1.33%)
= $986,842.11.
Purchase price of CD is $986,842.11.
After 10 days, 50 days remains in maturity and market interest rate become 7%.
50 days interest rate = 7% × 50 / 360
= 0.97%.
50 days rate after 10 day is 0.97%.
Price of CD after 10 days = $1,000,000 / (1 + 0.97%)
= $990,371.39.
Price of CD after 10 days will be $990,371.39.
Profit = $990,371.39 - $986,842.11
= $3,529.28.
Profit from Investment CD is $3,529.28.
