Question:
You own two $1,000 par bonds, one in this problem and one in the next. I want to illustrate something else. Both of these bonds are zero coupon bonds, which simply means they pay no coupon. The first bond matures in 3 years, and yields 8%. If the required yield drops to 6% (instantaneously, so the maturity does not change), what is the percentage price change? Answer in percent to three decimal places. Do not enter the percent sign. Do enter the sign if negative. Assume annual compounding.
