It is calcu The bond duration is a measure of the bond's sensitivity to changes in interest rates. It is the weighted average of the bond's cash flows, where the weights are the present value of each cash flow divided by the bond's price. It is possible to calculate the following durations: -- Macaulay's Duration: The weighted average time to receive the bond's cash flows. -- Modified Duration: The Macaulay's duration divided by 1 plus the yield to maturity. -- Effective Duration: The percentage change in the bond price for a 1% change in the yield to maturity. -- Dollar Duration: The modified duration multiplied by the bond price. +- **Macaulay's Duration:** The weighted average time to receive the bond's cash flows. +- **Modified Duration:** The Macaulay's duration divided by 1 plus the yield to maturity. +- **Effective Duration:** The percentage change in the bond price for a 1% change in the yield to maturity. +- **Dollar Duration:** The modified duration multiplied by the bond price. The duration values are depicted over a variety of coupon rates and years of maturities.
