There are five notes and one bond. Theoretical (not based on actual rates) on‐the‐run Treasury yields for a 2/15/22 settlement date are given with the maturities. Assume each security is priced at par.
| Note/Bond | Maturity | Yield/Coupon |
| 2 - Year Note | 2/15/2024 | 1.25% |
| 3 - Year Note | 2/15/2054 | 1.75% |
| 5 - Year Note | 2/15/2027 | 2.25% |
| 7 - Year Note | 2/15/2029 | 3.00% |
| 10 - Year Note | 2/15/2032 | 3.40% |
| 30 - Year Bond | 2/15/2052 | 4.20% |
- Calculate the modified duration and convexity measure in years using the below formulas. Use 10 basis points (0.10%) as the plus and minus change in yield.

Approximate Duration = Approximate Convexity = P-P 2(P)(Ay) P+P-2P P.(Ay)
