Kennyk11 | The modified duration will always be less than the Macaulay duration, except for the case when the yield is 0, in which case the Modified Duration will equal the Macaulay duration. Ex. If r=0 Modified Duration = Macaulay Duration / (1+0) = Macaulay Duration |

I am happy to say that I passed! Your study notes certainly helped prepare me for what was the most difficult exam I had ever taken.
