Now meet another manager, Kai$-$lan, who sends you into the jungle to meet Diego, the animal rescuer, and his sister, Alicia, the animal scientist. In order to save baby jaguars $($Go Diego Go$!),$ Diego and Alicia need U$.$S$.$$$10$ million a year at the end of the next two years. The U$.$S$.$ yield curve is flat at $8$ percent and a STRIP is a zero$-$coupon bond. What is the present value of Diego and Alicia$$s financial need $($in U$.$S$.$$$)?$ What maturity U$.$S$.$$ STRIP would meet their need? Suppose you bought that U$.$S$.$$ STRIP in b$.$ for Diego and Alicia. Now suppose that the flat U$.$S$.$ yield curve immediately increases to $9$ percent. What happens to their net position, that is$,$ to the difference between the value of the bond and that of the financial need? What if the flat U$.$S$.$ yield curve falls to $7$ percent?
