Compare duration with exact bond repricing

Build G2:G9 using the fixed 100 redemption and terms in B2:B8 plus decimal yield change B10. Report clean, accrued and dirty prices, Macaulay duration in years, modified duration, the approximate change -modified duration × yield change × dirty price, exact clean-price repricing change, and exact minus approximate. Settlement stays fixed so accrued interest cancels from the price change.

The answer cells begin blank. Enter a reusable formula and check it against the published practice datasets. Hints and the solution are available when you choose them.
