Supersunny138 - thanks for your reply. THere is a typo error in my original message. No wonder you think "the answer is so obvious, what a stupid question". What I meant is that the topic is not marked as optional material in CFA. That's why I wanted to find out whether this will be in the exam, given that it was not mentioned at all in the Schweser reading 64.
Rus1bus - Thanks for your advice. You are spot on. This topic covers the calculation of accrued interest, full price and clean price. As Schweser did not include this in their LOS, it makes me wonder whether I need to know how to calculate accrued interest and clean price for the sake of the exam. Like I said earlier in the original message, the LOS only states "Compute the value of a zero coupon bond". These calculations are only relevant for a coupon paying bond, not zero coupon bond. WHy would I bother with the calculation?
Anyway, due to this, I am reassessing the reliability of Schweser and I am definitely considering other study aids when I take Level II. Any recommendations? |
