 Solution

Write the discount factor as $D_t=B_t^{-1}=\exp (-{\int }_0^t{r}_{s}ds)$. Splitting the time integral at $t$ givesThe random variable $D_T$ lies in $(0,1]$ because the short rate is nonnegative and continuous on the finite maturity interval. A process of conditional expectations of an integrable terminal variable is a martingale, by the tower property of conditional expectation. Therefore
