1. Consider two bonds with a similar credit rating and pay the same coupon rate per annum. The terms to maturity for Bond A and Bond B are 5 years and 10 years respectively. If inflation rate is expected to increase in the near future and therefore leads to an increase in interest rate, what is the effect on the bond prices? Which bond is likely to experience a larger effect due to the increase in interest rate? Briefly explain your answer.

Suppose you purchase a $1000 Face-Value Zero-Coupon Bond with maturity 30 years and yield to maturity 4% quoted with annual compounding. Show the bond cash flows on a time line and compute the current price of the bond Draw a graph to illustrate how the price of this bond will change as it gets closer to maturity – Price (on y axis) vs Time (on x axis). Why is a zero-coupon bond more sensitive to interest rate changes than similar coupon bearing bonds (2 or 3 sentences)?
