For buyers and sellers, the current price acts as a benchmark. Present pricing is a good reflection of current worth, but depending on supply and demand, the actual price of the next sale could be greater or lower. Current prices are those that are listed at a specific time and are considered to be in nominal value. Constant prices are expressed in real value, which has been adjusted for changes in prices relative to a reference point or base line.
Modified duration calculation:
Duration modified by (1 + Yield to maturity) = Duration /
Duration modified = 9 / (1 + 0.04)
Duration modified: 9 / 1.04
Duration modified = 8.6538
This means that for every 1% movement in the yield to maturity, the bond price will move 8.6538% in the opposite direction.
In the example, the yield to maturity falls by 0.2% (4 - 3.8), increasing the price of the bond by 1.73076% (8.6538 / 1 * 0.2).
