a/ Price falls and convexity increases
b/ The price rises and convexity decreases
c/ The price rises and convexity increases

EEEE 1. Using the last 2 digits of your UIN, create your yield by adding 0.041 to the last 2 digits divided by 10000 (example: if last 2 digits are 26, then y= 0.041 +26/10000 = 0.0436). Create your coupon by dividing the last 2 digits by 100 and adding 4.2 to it (example continued: 26/100+ 4.2 = 4.46). Now, using your unique coupon and yield, assume your bond has 22 years to maturity and pays a semiannual coupon (assume...
