U.S. Corporate bonds with BBB credit rating – Curve BS75 4. U.S. Corporate bonds with BB credit rating – Curve BS193 5. U.S. Corporate bonds with B credit rating – Curve BS195 Take a screenshot from Bloomberg and paste it in the space below then scroll down for further questions.

Select two bond types out of the five you graphed above (Treasuries, A, BBB, BB and B bonds). For each of these selected types, calculate the price of an annual pay bond with a Face Value of $1,000, a coupon of 3%, and a time to maturity of 10 years. You need to use the information from the chart to find the appropriate yield to maturity to use for these two bonds. Provide your inputs for the price calculation in the cells in the table below. In the green box underneath, comment on the two prices you have found. In particular, explain how and why they are different.
