The available bonds for replication are: a one year zero coupon Bond-1, a 1.5-year Bond-2 that pays 13 percent coupon per year, and a 1-year Bond-3 which pays 17 percent coupon per year.
All the bonds (Bond-0, Bond-1, Bond-2, and Bond-3) have the same face value of $100 and pay their annual coupons two times a year.

1. What is the dollar face value of Bond-1 in the RP?
2. What is the dollar face value of Bond-2 in the RP?
3. What is the dollar face value of Bond-3 in the RP?
4. What is the cost of the RP?
5. What is the arbitrage fair price of Bond-0?
6. Is Bond-0 to be held long or short in arbitrage trading strategy.
7. Is Bond-1 to be held long or short in an arbitrage trading strategy.
8. Is Bond-2 to be held long or short in an arbitrage trading strategy.
