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/BondMaturityYield/Coupon
2 - Year Note2/15/20241.25%
3 - Year Note2/15/20541.75%
5 - Year Note2/15/20272.25%
7 - Year Note2/15/20293.00%
10 - Year Note2/15/20323.40%
30 - Year Bond2/15/20524.20%
  1. 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.
  2. Approximate Duration = Approximate Convexity = P-P 2(P)(Ay) P+P-2P P.(Ay)

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