【Answer to question 1】B
【analysis】
B is correct. Contraction risk is the risk faced by investors when interest rates fall in that the security will effectively have a shorter maturity than was anticipated at the time of purchase because homeowners can refinance at new, lower interest rates.
A is incorrect because contraction risk is the risk faced by investors when interest rates fall in that the security will effectively have a shorter, not longer, maturity than was anticipated at the time of purchase because homeowners can refinance at new, lower interest rates.
C is incorrect because contraction risk is the risk faced by investors when interest rates fall, not rise, in that the security will effectively have a shorter maturity than was anticipated at the time of purchase because homeowners can refinance at new, lower interest rates.
【Answer to question 2】A
【analysis】
B is incorrect because it assumes a year passes before the discount rate increases from 7% to 8% and calculates a new bond value of 101.75.
C is incorrect because it reverses the coupon rate and discount rate in the calculations.
