For the same bonds in question 9, let us now turn to focus on the relationship between price and yield. Using the measures you calculated above, answer the following of questions. (a) Estimate the new price of the bonds for a 100 basis point increase in interest rates (using DV01) (b) Estimate the new price of the bonds for a 100 basis point increase in interest rates (using the modified duration) (c) Using both duration and convexity measures, estimate the price of the bonds for a 100 basis point increase in interest rates. (d) Now, using the bond pricing formula precisely calculate the new prices of both bonds for an increase in interest rates of 100 basis points. (e) Which of the approximations from parts (a) through (c) provides you with the closest approximation of the new prices that you obtained in part (d)? Why do you think that this measure works best? (f) Without working through calculations, indicate whether the duration of the two bonds would be higher or lower if the yield to maturity is 10% rather than 8%.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has been aspiring for a disease-free world for decades. The first step to achieve this goal is to vaccinate all newborns against diseases and thus reduce child mortality. This year, almost 90% of children younger than two years have been inoculated with WHO-recommended vaccines, yet the percentage of infant deaths in the city has gone up significantly. Which of the following CAN be concluded from the above information? The overall population has increased substantially this year. This year an epidemic caused by a new virus has affected children below three years. The vaccination data released by government officials was inflated. WHO recommendations given to the government need to be updated.

It is necessary to extract 6800 m^3/hr of air at 50ºC and 1 atm from a hot room to the outside of a building through a 50 m long pipe with an external diameter of 500 mm and a thickness of 5 mm. It is made of carbon steel. The air to be extracted is sucked in by a blower located at the line discharge. Calculate the pressure difference between the suction pipe and the blower if, for the system, the total sum of the resistance coefficients of accessories, including the inlet resistance, is k's = 4.2.
