问题如下:
Assuming that the yield falls by 90 basis points, what's the convexity effect for a bond with a convexity of 120?
选项:
A.0.972%
B.0.486%
C.1.080%
解释:
B is correct.
Correct answer:
convexity effect= (1/2) * convexity * (ΔYTM)2 = (0.5)(120)(0.009)2=0.00486=0.486%
Incorrect answer:
convexity effect= convexity * (ΔYTM)2 = (120)(0.009)2=0.00972=0.972%
convexity effect= convexity * (ΔYTM) = 120 * 0.009 =1.08%
90bp不是0.9么?为什么是0.009呢?
