Exercise 1:

A financial institution only has one coupon bond on the asset side, with a maturity of 5 years, a principal of 1000 AUD and a coupon rate of 4%. On the liability side the financial institution has 8 deposits of each 100 AUD in face value, with a maturity of 1 year and coupon rate (also in the final year in addition to the face value) of 1%. The current interest rate is 2%.

a) Calculate the value of the asset side coupon bond.

b) Calculate the value of the total liabilities.

c) Calculate the asset duration and the liablity duration.

d) Calculate the leverage adjusted duration gap.

Exercise 2:

Consider 4-year coupon bond with coupon C and face value 100. The current market interest rate is 10%.

a) The coupon C is 5. Calculate the duration of this coupon bond.

b) The duration of the zero coupon bond is 3.5. Calculate the coupon C.

c) Now consider a coupon bond with face value 200 and coupon C = 10. Calculate the duration of this coupon bond and compare your findings to a).

Create a 2 page essay paper that discusses Wk 2 disc (22&31).

I agree with the Hansen et. al (2006) study because I think that the factors they found: showing respect for the clients world view, evaluating when the counselors own views, assumptions and biases are impeding the counseling process, and establishing rapport are very important in working with any group, but especially with multicultural groups (p. 70).

In the study by Constantine et. al (2004), a good point was made that many institutions are not open to multiculturalism and this can cause problems. However, a counselor who is willing to be flexible and who is willing to get to know different cultures will succeed better than someone who is not. Constantine et. al also said that a multi-cultural counselor must understand cultural issues. I believe this is true because this is a way that one can relate better to a client and it develops trust.
