6. Suppose a four-year corporate bond provides a coupon of 6% per year payable semiannually and has a yield of 4% (semiannual compounding). The yield for all maturities on risk-free bonds is 3% per annum (semiannual compounding). Assume that defaults can take place every six months immediately before a coupon payment and the recovery rate is 30%. Estimate the default probabilities assuming i. The unconditional default probabilities are the same on each possible default date ii. The default probabilities conditional on no earlier default are the same on each possible default date.
