You expect inflation over the next year to be 4.6%. Actual inflation over the last year was 0.78%, and the current nominal interest rate is 0.51%. What is your expected real rate of interest (in %)? Round to 0.01%. E.g., if your answer is 3.145%, record it as 3.15.

Suppose you and other investors expect that inflation will be 4% next year, to rise to 5% during the following year and then to remain at 4.9% thereafter. Further you expect that the real risk free rate of interest will remain at 2% and the maturity risk premium on treasury securities will rise from .2% for one year bonds. Maturity risk premiums are expected to increase 0.2% for each year to maturity up to a limit of 1.0 percentage point on 5-year...

Question 22 (0.9 points) Over the next three years, the expected path of 1-year interest rates is 1, 2, and 1 percent, and the 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year term premia are 0, 0.2, and 0.5 percent, respectively. Using the information, if the expectations theory of the term structure is true, then the current interest rate on 2-year bond must be % (round to one decimal place x.x). Question 23 (0.9 points) Over the next three years, the expected path of...

An economist expects short-term rates to remain unchanged over the next several years. The economist would most likely predict an upward sloping yield curve if he believes which term structure theory applies? a) Local expectations theory. b) Liquidity preference theory. c) Unbiased expectations theory. ОА OB OC QUESTION 41 If the spot rate curve is upward sloping, then: a) The forward curve lies above the spot curve and the yield to maturity will be lower than the spot rate with...

e. Suppose most investors expect the inflation rate to be 5% next year, 6% the following year, and 8% thereafter. The real risk-free rate is 3%. The maturity risk premium is zero for bonds that mature in 1 year or less and 0.1% for 2-year bonds; then the MRP increases by 0.1% per year thereafter for 20 years, after which it is stable. What is the interest rate on 1-, 10-, and 20-year Treasury bonds? Draw a yield curve with...
