Explanation:

Bond Sam

if market interest rates increase by 2%:

11% / 2 = 5.5% semiannual payments

5 years to maturity = 10 payments

present value = future value = 1000

PV of face value = 1,000 / (1 + 5.5%)¹⁰ = $585.43PV of coupon payments = 45 x 7.53763 (PV annuity factor, 5.5%, 10 periods) = $339.19

new market price = $585.43 + $339.15 = $924.62

if interest increases by 2%, present value (market value) will decrease by $75.38 ⇒ 7.54% decrease

if market interest rates decrease by 2%:

7% / 2 = 3.5% semiannual payments

5 years to maturity = 10 payments

present value = future value = 1000

PV of face value = 1,000 / (1 + 3.5%)¹⁰ = $708.92 PV of coupon payments = 45 x 8.31661 (PV annuity factor, 3.5%, 10 periods) = $374.25

new market price = $708.92 + $374.25 = $1,083.17

if interest decrease by 2%, present value (market value) will increase by $83.17 ⇒ 8.32% increase

Bond Dave

if market interest rates increase by 2%:

11% / 2 = 5.5% semiannual payments

18 years to maturity = 36 payments

present value = future value = 1000

PV of face value = 1,000 / (1 + 5.5%)³⁶ = $145.52PV of coupon payments = 45 x 18.80474 (PV annuity factor, 5.5%, 36 periods) = $711.21

new market price = $145.52 + $711.21 = $856.73

if interest increases by 2%, present value (market value) will decrease by $143.27 ⇒ 14.33% decrease

if market interest rates decrease by 2%:

7% / 2 = 3.5% semiannual payments

18 years to maturity = 36 payments

present value = future value = 1000

PV of face value = 1,000 / (1 + 3.5%)³⁶ = $289.83 PV of coupon payments = 45 x 20.29049 (PV annuity factor, 3.5%, 36 periods) = $913.07

new market price = $289.83 + $913.07 = $1,202.90

if interest decrease by 2%, present value (market value) will increase by $202.90 ⇒ 20.29% increase
