To compute accrued interest, press # until the AI variable appears. The
calculator automatically computes AI in terms of dollars per $100 of par
value.
Computing Modified Duration (DUR)
To compute modified duration, press # until the DUR variable appears.
The calculator automatically computes DUR.
Example: Computing Bond Price, Accrued Interest,
and Modified Duration
You consider buying a semiannual corporate bond maturing on
December 31, 2007 and settling on June 12, 2006. The bond is based on
the 30/360 day-count method with a coupon rate of 7%, redeemable at
100% of par value. For an 8% yield to maturity, compute the bond’s
price, accrued interest, and modified duration.
Computing Bond Price, Accrued Interest, and Modified
Duration
Answer: The bond price is $98.56 per 100. The accrued interest is $3.15
per 100. Modified duration is 1.44.
