Question: Consider a 5 - year, 1 1 % annual coupon bond priced at 8 6 . 5 9 1 3 8 per 1 0 0

Consider a 5-year, 11% annual coupon bond priced at 86.59138 per 100 per to yield 15% to maturity.
a. If its YTM increases by 50 basis points, its price will decrease to 85.09217. If its YTM decreases by 50 basis points, its price will increase to 88.12721. Calculate the approximate convexity of the bond.
b. We have calculated the modified duration to be 3.50 and the convexity of the bond to be 16.9. Estimate the new price of the bond if its yield decreases by 50 basis points.
c. For the bond in the previous examples, calculate the money duration and money convexity of a $10 million par position in the bond and estimate the new price of the bond for a 50-basis point decrease in yield. Recall that the modified duration of the bond is 3.50 and its convexity is 16.9.
Calculate the following in each:
a.: V-; V+; V0; \Delta YTM; the approximate convexity
b.: modified duration; \Delta YTM; duration effect; convexity of the bond; convexity effect; new price of the bond
c.: the market value of the position; money duration of the position; money convexity of the bond; duration effect; convexity effect; the expected change in the bond price; new price of the bond
Solve the questions in Excel. Use functions (indicate when and detail them) and elaborate on every other equation utilised during the solution as well.
Addition:
money convexity = annual convexity * full price of the bond position
change in full price of bond =-(MoneyDur *\Delta YTM)+(0.5* MoneyCon *\Delta YTM^2)
