The following is the Yield structure of AAA rated debenture: Period 3 months 6 months Yield (%) 8.5% 1 year 9.25 10.50 11.25 2 years 3 years and above 12.00 Based on the expectation theory determine the implicit one-year forward rates in year 2 and year 3. If the interest rate increases by 50 basis points, what will be the percentage change in the price of the bond having a maturity of 5 years? Assume that the bond is fairly priced at the moment at Rs. 1,000.
