ASSIGNMENT 2 2026
DUE: APRIL 2026




SEMESTER 1 2026

, INV3702 ASSIGNMENT 2 2026

DUE APRIL 2026



Work through lessons 1 to 7; then answer the following questions. Submit your
assignment as a pdf document via myUnisa.




Question 1

Bond C is fairly valued.

The arbitrage-free (no-arbitrage) price of Bond C is calculated by discounting its cash
flows using the spot rates implied by the zero-coupon bonds

(Lesson 7: The arbitrage-free valuation framework; 2026 Study Guide, Lesson 7).

Assume par value = R100. Cash flows: R6 at t=1, R106 at t=2. Spot rates: 1-year =
2.350% (Bond B), 2-year = 2.500% (Bond D).




The market price implied by Bond C’s observed YTM of 2.496% is:



Pmarket=6/1.024966+(1.02496)2106 = 106.7541

The two prices are identical within rounding error, so Bond C is fairly valued (no
arbitrage opportunity). (Lesson 7; also consistent with spot-rate bootstrapping in the
2018 Unit 6–7 materials.)
