Reading 56: Valuing Bonds with Embedded Options-LOS f 习题精

Session 14: Fixed Income: Valuation Concepts
Reading 56: Valuing Bonds with Embedded Options

LOS f: Explain the effect of volatility on the arbitrage-free value of an option.

 

 

As the volatility of interest rates increases, the value of a callable bond will:

A)
 rise.
B)
 rise if the interest rate is below the coupon rate, and fall if the interest rate is above the coupon rate.
C)
 decline.

 

As volatility increases, so will the option value, which means the value of a callable bond will decline. Remember that with a callable bond, the investor is short the call option.

As the volatility of interest rates increases, the value of a putable bond will:

A)
 rise.
B)
 decline.
C)
 rise if the interest rate is below the coupon rate, and fall if the interest rate is above the coupon rate.

As volatility increases, so will the option value, which means the value of a putable bond will rise. Remember that with a putable bond, the investor is long the put option.
