Modified Duration = Macaulay Duration / (1 + YTM) = 4.49 / (1 + 0.0281) = 4.37
Dollar Change in Price = [-Duration * Change in Yield * Current Bond Price] + [Convexity * (Change in Yield)2 * Current Bond Price]
= [-4.37 * (0.0207 - 0.0281) * $6,000] + [56.88 * (0.0207 - 0.0281)2 * $6,000]
= $193.91 + $18.69 = $212.60
