Consider a 2 year bond with 10% semi-annual coupon payments. Assume that its yield is equal to 10%. Assume F = 100 for face value.
(a) Take the first derivative of the bond price with respect to yield.
(b) Calculate the first derivative by using price and duration. Check that you obtain the same result as in (a).
(c) Find the second derivative of the bond price with respect to yield.
(d) Prove that the price of the bond is a convex function of the yield.

2) Assume that you have a 10 year Treasury Bond with a yield of 2.76%, coupon rate of 2.35%, paying annual coupon payments. Assume the face value of the bond is $1,000. Shock the yield on the bond by 100 basis points up and down to determine the approximate duration and approximate convexity of the bond. Determine the approximate percentage change in the price of the bond because of the effects of duration and convexity when there is a 100...
