问题 单项选择题

A Treasury bill (T-bill) with 38 days until maturity has a bank discount yield of 3.82 percent. Which of the following is closest to the money market yield on the T-bill()

A. 3.81%.

B. 3.84%.

C. 3.87%

答案

参考答案:B

解析:

The formula for the money market yield is: [360×bank discount yield]/[360-(t×bank discount yield)]. Therefore, the money market yield is: [360×0.0382]/[360-(38×0. 0382)]=0.0384, or 3.84%. Alternatively: Actual discount=3.82%×(38/360)=0.4032%. T-Bill price=100-0.4032=99.5968%. HPR=(100/99.5968)-1=0.4048%. MMY=0.4048%×(360/38)=3.835%.
