Please NOTE I am only asking for questions 6 and 7... (Need other questions in order to answer 6 and 7)

Instruction:

In each of the following questions monthly mortgage coupon rates should be

calculated by simply dividing the annual rate by 12. You should also assume that all of the

securities pay monthly. You should also divide annual interest rates by 12 to get the corresponding monthly rate and assume monthly compounding when computing present values.

1.(Level-Payment Mortgages) Compute the monthly payment on a 30-year level payment mortgage assuming an annual mortgage rate of 5% and an initial mortgage principal of $400,000. Submission Guideline: Give your answer rounded to two decimal places. For example, if you compute the answer to be $73.2367, submit 73.24. (ANSWER IS: 2147.29)

2 (Mortgage Pass-Throughs) Consider a $400 million pass-through MBS that has just been created (so the 'seasoning' of the pass-through is equal to 0). The underlying pool of mortgages each has a maturity of 20 years and an annual mortgage coupon rate of 6%. The pass-through rate of the mortgage pool is 5%. Assuming a prepayment multiplier of 100 PSA what is the total amount of interest paid to the pass-through investors? Submission Guideline: Give your answer in millions rounded to two decimal places. For example, if you compute the answer to be $123,456,789,12, submit 123.46. (ANSWER IS: 171.18)

3 (Mortgage-Pass Throughs) Referring to the same mortgage pass-through of the previous question, what is the total amount of the prepayments? Submission Guideline: Give your answer in millions rounded to two decimal places. For example, if you compute the answer to be $123,456,789,12, submit 123.46. (ANSWER IS 181.09)

4 (Mortgage-Pass Throughs) Referring to the same mortgage pass-through of the previous question, what is the total amount of the prepayments if the rate of prepayments increases to 200 PSA? Submission Guideline: Give your answer in millions rounded to two decimal places. For example, if you compute the answer to be $123,456,789,12, submit 123.46. (ANSWER IS: 268.15)

5 (Principal-Only MBS and Interest-Only MBS) Suppose we construct principal-only (PO) and interest-only (IO) mortgage-backed securities (MBS) using the mortgage pass-through of the previous questions. Assume a prepayment multiplier of 100 PSA. What is the present value of the PO MBS if we use an annual risk-free rate of 4.5% to value the cash-flows? Submission Guideline: Give your answer in millions rounded to two decimal places. For example, if you compute the answer to be $123,456,789,12, submit 123.46. (ANSWER IS 280.10)

6. (Principal-Only MBS and Interest-Only MBS) Referring to the previous question, what is the value of the IO MBS? Submission Guideline: Give your answer in millions rounded to two decimal places. For example, if you compute the answer to be $123,456,789,12, submit 123.46.

7. (Principal-Only MBS and Interest-Only MBS) Referring to the previous question, what is the average life of the IO MBS? Submission Guideline: Give your answer in years rounded to two decimal places. For example, if you compute the answer to be 12.1234 years, submit 12.12.
